Celebrating the Women of Hart House Theatre

Yesterday marked International Women's Day! We are grateful for the talented and knowledgeable women that have been a part of Hart House Theatre this past year.

Whether teaching our online workshops, engaging in conversational events, judging our playwriting competition, sharing their experiences in our artist chats, or giving incredible performances from home on our social media channels, we wanted to take a moment to celebrate this incredible group of women!

UNMUTE is Live this Saturday

Hart House Theatre and FIFSW Graduate Student Association present a forum theatre piece created by Theatre of the Beat that addresses the rise of domestic violence and gender-based assault during COVID-19.

This is an interactive, forum theatre piece that allows audience members to stop the action of the play and makes suggestions of different approaches to navigating these difficult situations around gender-based violence.

Re: Write (Lit so White)

Re: Write (Lit so White) explores how to represent diversity in literature and writing — how to write so that it speaks to diverse communities and not for them. Join the Hart House Student Literary and Library Committee for a community discussion around how to represent diversity in your writing and the writing that just didn’t get it right.

Mark your calendars!
