Call to action!

On 1 August a new international social media advocacy campaign was launched on Twitter called #52playsbywomen.

It is a campaign for the theatre, inspired by Women In Film’s successful #52filmsbywomen campaign.

Started by American writer Laura Annawyn Shamas, #52playsbywomen’s goals are to foster further recognition of plays by women on social media, and to encourage the repeated selection of plays by women as a personal choice for theatre-goers around the world.
