www.broadwayworld.com: The Broadway Women's Fund has just released its third annual list of Women to Watch on Broadway.
"This list, curated by Broadway Women's Fund leadership based on nominations by advisory board members, is by no means comprehensive. In fact, no list would do justice to the amount of capable and talented women in our industry.

I didn't know this list was something that has existed beforehand. One thing I greatly appreciated about this list was that it did not just showcase performers. Honestly, I thought it would only be made up of performers, and was actually surprised to see other positions listed. I believe showcasing women in production roles is especially important, as it is an area of theatre that is still male-dominated. I also was expecting it to be made up of entirely white people, which it was not, which I also appreciated. This list left me wanting more lists similar to this. Specifically, for trans and nonbinary artists. Trans characters, performers, designers, and production members are still not well represented on and off stage (more off than on), but this does not mean they do not exist. I only know of a few, and would love to broaden my knowledge of these artists. It would allow me to help support them and their work, something I want to engage in.
