On International Women's Day 2023, The Women's Library is putting Australian women playwrights back on the map (and on the shelves).

Join us at the International Women's Day Drama Party for an evening of women's drama, with readings by Donna Abela, Hilary Bell, Noélle Janaczewska, and Catherine Zimdahl from 7-ON Playwrights. Women from the collective, who are all accomplished playwrights, are generously donating copies of their works to The Women's Library to kickstart its collection of Australian plays.

Be the first to hear these selected readings while you enjoy the fabulous hospitality of The Women's Library's catering crew.

All welcome. This is a free event with the doors open from 6:00pm. Refreshments will be served. Bookings are not required.
