Other choices will include comedy from a couple of big names, concerts both classical and country, and a huge soccer match.

Echo Theatre reinvents its mission with “women+”
Rich Lopez | Contributing Writer
For more than 20 years, Echo Theatre has produced stage and theater with a focus on women playwrights and creatives. But as times, identities and conversations progressed, the theater company realized it needed to progress as well. Thus, as part of its new initiative,
Echo Theatre was inspired to adjust its mission “to champion the diverse voices of women+.”
With a new board of directors and mission and vision, Echo has a whole new outlook.
“We wanted to take a look at ourselves and see if Echo was doing what it is we set out to do,” Artistic Director Kateri Cale said by phone. “Through a lot of self-examination and asking about our place in the arts community and what values are important to us, we knew our mission needed to be refreshed.”
