“Washington, DC is a theater town,” Mayor Muriel Bowser said in a release. “One of the best ways for our city to show our appreciation for artists and creatives is by filling our theaters, and Theatre Week is a great opportunity to see a show in DC.”

Venues in D.C., Maryland and Virginia are participating, including the Kennedy Center, Atlas Performing Arts Center, Synetic Theater and Shakespeare Theatre Company, which is showing "EVITA."

"My Mama and the Full Scale Invasion," a fantastical play about a woman living on the frontlines of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, held its world premiere at Woolly Mammoth Theatre this month and is among the shows in the DC Theatre Week lineup.

Kid-friendly productions include “Not My Monkey” at Montgomery College and “You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown” at Adventure Theatre MTC.

Theatre Week Kickoff Fest is the free kickoff party on Saturday, Sept. 23 with activities ranging from chats with costume designers, making your own zombie t-shirt, workshops and performances. It’s free to attend; here’s the schedule and link for tickets.
