Women’s Project Presents Women of Achievement By: Sara Herbert-Galloway sara@blacktiemagazine.com
The 22nd annual Women of Achievement awards gala for Women’s Project took place at The Rainbow Room’s Pegasus Suite in Rockefeller Center. It was a beautiful evening with spectacular views of the stars both outside and inside. Three women of international distinction were honored for their extraordinary accomplishments. Kathy Hilton the noted international philanthropist; Eve Ensler, the world-renowned playwright and founder of V-day, committed to ending violence against girls and women; and Vivienne Tam, the incomparably exquisite fashion designer and entrepreneur. The presenters were Yoko Ono, Bebe Neuwirth, and Kerry Washington. Women’s Project was founded in 1878 by Julia Miles. It has steadily grown as a not-for-profit organization dedicated to producing and promoting theatre created by women. During its 28 years, Women’s Project has produced over 120 main stage and 450 developmental productions, and published 10 anthologies of plays by women. In 1998, Women’s Project purchased a historic building on West 55th Street in Manhattan, making it the first and only women’s theatre company to have its own stage. Women’s Project mentors talented artists through its intensive Directors, Playwrights, and Producers Labs and serves over 3,300 students through Ten Centuries of Women Playwrights, an award winning curriculum-based arts education program. Julie Cosby is the Producing Artistic Director. In May WP is teaming up with Arts World Financial Center to produce Girls Just Wanna Have Fund$, rich short plays on the subject of women and wealth (or lack thereof). The works will be presented at sites throughout the World Financial Center complex.
Women’s Project is clearly thriving and providing real opportunities for its members. To find out more about Women’s Project please contact : Women’s Project 55 West End Avenue, New York, New York 10019 www.womensproject.org To list an upcoming event please contact joyce@blacktiemagazine.com
