The DC International Theatre Festival is a year-long celebration of the transformative partnerships forged between American and international theatre artists across borders. DC theatres bring the best international talent to DC, and attract visitors from across the region and the country to experience world-class performances.

​

“This festival started with a simple idea: what if DC’s Downtown theatres pooled our energy to bring global artists into conversation with our audiences—and with each other?” said Maria Manuela Goyanes, Artistic Director, Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company/LCT3 at Lincoln Center. “DC is one of the most international cities in the world. It makes sense that our stages reflect that. I’m proud that Woolly is part of a collective effort to build deeper relationships across borders and expand what’s possible in American theatre.”
