UCD Dramsoc Womens Week Events
Women’s Week is a festival spanning the entirety of Week 7 designed to celebrate woman-kind in theatre and everywhere else. We have events every single day between 5th-9th March including poetry slams, workshops, quizzes – we even have an ‘Insirational Women Board’ which will be outside the theatre before and after every event for you to add your favourite females. All of our events are open to all Dramsoc members, you don’t need to be a lady to partake! Check out our schedule of events below, and if anything tickles your fancy be sure to check out the Facebook event for more details. All profits from the festival will be donated to charities helping women around Ireland, and there will be an opportunity to donate at every event, too!
