Celebrating, supporting, and advocating for women theater artists by promoting gender parity at all levels of theatrical production. The Lilly Awards were started in the Spring of 2010 as an outlet to honor the work of women in the American theater. In partnership with the Dramatists Guild, The Lilly Awards have gathered resources and conducted a national survey simply called The Count that accurately showcases which theaters are producing the work of women, and which are not. The Lilly Awards Foundation is dedicated to honoring the work of women in the American theater.
The Mix is a new play resource highlighting plays that feature casts of intersectional and intersecting social identities. The brainchild of Aaron Carter, The Mix was developed by Aaron and Polly Hubbard, Director of New Play Development at Steppenwolf Theatre Company. The list of plays was generated by and for the collective wisdom of professionals in the field; by publishing this list as a resource, we hope to encourage theaters to produce these plays. The Mix was made possible by the generous support of The Joyce Foundation, Time Warner Foundation, and The Davee Foundation.
