Chicago, IL – Broken Nose Theatre has announced the ninth iteration of its award-winning annual festival, Bechdel Fest. Running August 28-31 at The Den Theatre, the festival will present short plays featuring an ensemble of femme, female-identifying, non-binary, trans, and queer actors talking about things other than men. Written, directed, and performed by some of the most outstanding artists the city has to offer, the festival will offer a slate of stories that center around characters finally on the edge of growing up, glowing up, and making big decisions that ultimately take them to the next level.
