Washington's reputation as a hub for vibrant arts and culture is well-deserved, and the upcoming 2024–2025 theater season is poised to be nothing short of spectacular. With a wealth of over 80 professional companies in the area, theater enthusiasts face the challenge of navigating the myriad of options available. How can they discern the must-see productions, determine which ones offer the best value, and identify those that might not meet their expectations?

As part of the annual Theatre Week celebration, join Amy Austin, president and CEO of Theatre Washington, and a panel of experts as they delve into why Washington is one of the nation's premier theater towns. Together, they explore the exciting lineup of productions awaiting audiences on stages both large and small.

Moderated by Lauren Halvorsen, a freelance dramaturg and the publisher of the Nothing for the Group newsletter, this robust conversation promises insights into the wide array of theatrical offerings awaiting audiences in the nation's capital. Panelists navigate the landscape of D.C. theater, discuss what makes upcoming productions unique, what audiences can expect from the upcoming season, and how to make the most of their theater-going experience. Participants receive a curated list of the most-anticipated productions, complete with critics' picks of shows not to be missed.
