TALK: Why Do We Need Storyhouse Women?

Embark on a thoughtful journey with a diverse panel of women as they kick off a weekend dedicated to profound conversations. Suzie Henderson, Creative Director of Storyhouse, will engage in a candid discussion on stage with women deeply rooted in the fabric of Chester—those who work, live, and play here. 

Now in its 4th year, Storyhouse Women Weekend creates a space for girls and women to authentically share their stories, offering insights into the realities of living in today’s world. Aligned with the annual International Women’s Day, the weekend not only celebrates the achievements of women across social, economic, cultural, and political spheres but also serves as a call to action for advancing women’s equality. 

During this session, Suzie and the panel will delve into the 2024 International Women’s Day theme, #InspireInclusion. Beyond that, the conversation will explore the personal motivations and sources of inspiration for each participant. To wrap things up, we’ll learn which festival event each woman is eagerly anticipating over the weekend. Join us for a meaningful dialogue that resonates with the essence of Storyhouse Women Weekend.
