Inclusive Hiring and Casting Practices in Theatre

Do you want to:
• Clarify your responsibility to create inclusive and equitable artistic teams on and off stage?
• Recognize and address the challenges you may experience when creating an inclusive and equitable artistic team?
• Gain more knowledge on what barriers underrepresented communities experience in the performing arts sector?
• Learn more about how to move forward with engaging artists of color, artists with disabilities, and artists of various gender identities?

Join Rohit Chokhani (Project SAT {South Asian Theatre}), Marisa Emma Smith (Alley Theatre), Mily Mumford (Nebula Company Theatre), Raes Calvert (Hardline Productions), and Susanna Uchatius (Theatre Terrific) to hear how they’ve found success, and how they’ve learned from their mistakes in creating diverse, inclusive, and equitable teams.

This workshop runs from 10:00am-noon, with space open for informal conversation until 1:00pm
