The Fortnight Project began as a Zoom group for femme-identifying performers to reconnect and re-experience the joy of performing in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Members would meet every two weeks (or every ‘fortnight’) to gather and share monologues, scenes, original writing, and handicrafts. Our group now holds meetings once a month in-person. Since our beginning in 2021, the joy we’ve found has empowered us to produce our own work in a space that allows for true collaboration, where performers are valued and empowered. Our mission is to create feminist spaces and theater works that foster sisterhood and empower performing artists.
