I got this from a friend and thought I'd pass it on by posting it here:
Tennessee Women's Theater Project
Last year, Tennessee Women's Theater Project held our first festival and celebration of works created by women: Women's Work. It was so successful — drawing women playwrights, poets, musicians, essayists, painters, and filmmakers from across Tennessee and across the country — that we have decided to make it an annual event.
Once again, for three weekends in May (May 9 through May 25), Women's Work will showcase the talents of creative women at Nashville's Z. Alexander Looby Theatre. Today we begin the call for submissions. We will consider a variety of works: staged readings or reader's theater presentations of plays by women playwrights; performance pieces by women; films and documentaries by women; poetry readings; songwriters, choreographers; stand-up comics – you name it, we'll consider it. TWTP will provide the stage; the woman artist will provide the work. (Please note, if a presenter requires actors, musicians, dancers, etc., TWTP may provide the leads, but it will be up to the presenter to contact those people and arrange for their participation.)
The deadline for submissions is April 11. Please visit our website to download a submission form. There's a small submission fee of $15.00, to help offset our costs; this fee will be waived for 2007 presenters.
We urge you to forward this to any women artists you think might be interested. E-mail me (Maryanna@twtp.org), or call 615-681-7220, for more information, or if you have any questions.
We're looking forward to an even bigger and better festival than last year!

I totally think we should come up with an interpretive dance, "Nutrition." You can be a mound of Spinach and... I'll be the villian, a plastic container of nacho cheese and chips and I'll chase you on my scooter and then you can have super powers (per Rachel D) to overcome my anti-nutrition ways... Now, THAT is a play/dance I'd pay to go see.
