What It’s Like to Work With SKENE.

Working with Skene to promote our Annual Conference & Stage Expo was seamless and, most importantly, successful. Our similar audience base and passion for the people who make theatre and live entertainment happen made Skene an easy choice. Having a presence on Skene’s website and through their social media channels extended our reach farther than we could have imagined […] it made a direct impact on the success of our record-breaking 2026 show.”

Skene is an incredible resource for theatre artists, scholars and those wishing to expand their knowledge of what theatre can be. Their support of The Fire Weeds was very impactful during our first residency in New York City. Skene helped grow our audience and shone a light on our company’s commitment to bold, female driven work.”
