A Challenge from the Managing Director
72 Hour Match!
FROM CORRI OSTER, MANAGING DIRECTOR OF HEDGEPIG:
I was thrilled to see so many folks turn out for This is a Classic! Live! on Monday to learn more about Expand the Canon and am continuously humbled to be a small part of this impact.
We have 36 plays & counting featured on expandthecanon.com spanning 4 centuries and 5 continents. We also have over 7,000 titles of classic plays by women & non-binary writers in our database - and there are more out there waiting to be discovered.
Today, I ask you to be part of the impact this work can make by making a donation of any size. And as a bonus -
I pledge to donate an ADDITIONAL $5 for
EVERY DONATION made through January 31.
Jessie Austrian, Co-Artistic Director of Fiasco Theater, said it perfectly on Monday:
“This work is important because it’s creating a sense of belonging in theater.”
Women have always been writing - so let’s celebrate that.
Join us as we continue this work - and embark on Expand the Canon, year five. And help us reach our $10,000 goal by January 31 - we’re almost there!
Your support today uplifts the voices of centuries of women and non-binary writers.
