THRIVE! video

We have curated a video featuring the THRIVE! program’s RECOGNIZE grantees and showcasing their impact on their local communities and broader cultural landscape.

Legacy Leaders of Color Video

We made these videos to honor the legacy of those who came before, who started these theatres to:

• Create opportunities lacking for artists of color
• Challenge appropriation and misrepresentation through staging the full richness and complexity of racial, ethnic and cultural identities
• Gain political power and creative autonomy.
• Contribute their unique aesthetic and social perspectives to the American theatre and wider culture.
