  Abstract:   This paper focuses on the importance of women in theatre, through the analysis of Transit. Transit is an international woman theatre festival organised by Julia Varley, actress at Odin Teatret since 1976. It takes place every two or three years, in Holstebro, within the premises of Odin Teatret, which supports its realisation. Each Transit festival focuses on a particular theme chosen by Julia Varley. Since 1992 several topics have framed the six festivals’ editions: 1. Transit. Directors and the dynamic patterns of theatre groups. What are women proposing?; 2. Theatre – Women and Politics; 3. Theatre – Women – Generations; 4. Roots in Transit; 5. Stories to Be Told; 6. Theatre – Women – On the Periphery. The length of the festival varies from five to ten days of performances, workshops, lectures or symposium. The latest International Women’s Theatre Festival Transit VII was held at Odin Teatret from 28th May to 9th June 2013.

Keywords: Julia Varley, Transit, festival, women, theatre.
