About this Event
Los Angeles Women's Theatre Festival (LAWTF) will present solo performers live on stage for our 33rd Annual Festival
"THE STRENGTH WE CARRY"
Empowering Voices of Solo Female Performers for 33 Years.
Festivities begin on Thursday, March 26, 2026 with our Champagne GALA and Awards Ceremony that honors powerful female voices in theatre. NOTE: Please visit Eventbrite page for tickets. Our powerful line-up of performers and events will span a 4-day, 6 program Festival, March 26 - March 29.
Our diverse 2026 performers will again transport our appreciative audiences as they touch hearts, tear eyes, tickle funny bones and transport our audiences beyond their own experiences as they share their diverse stories.
Join hands with us during this milestone celebration as we continue to empower female solo voices.
