NEWS FROM THE FEMINIST CAUCUS
By Anne Burke, Chair.

Fem Fest 2009 ran from September 25 to October 4, at Canwest Centre for Theatre and Film, at the University of Winnipeg.  “Unruly” is a Women’s Studies Professor by day and Superhero by night.  Poetry, feminist theory, and crime abatement are combined on stage. 

Fem Fest is a festival of one-act plays by women playwrights, which was inaugurated in June 2003 and received an enthusiastic response from both artists involved and the community as a whole.  The goal of the festival is to showcase women playwrights from across Canada, provide development opportunities for women theatre artists, and support emerging theatre artists.
