Mission

Our mission is to provide audiences with complete and authentic portrayals of the experience of people of African descent across the world; and to provide artists of African descent pure and unapologetic artistic freedom. We do this by producing and presenting all forms of art, and by challenging unjust systems that prevent arts, artists, institutions, and communities of African descent full access to world-class arts, creative spaces, and art making.

About

FY 2018 productions included 3 full-length MainStage productions, a student matinee program, a monthly reading series of works-in-development in partnership with Frank Silvera's Writers Workshop, and a limited run monologue showcase by women of color, as well as film screenings and talks of interest to the community. Our programming reached more than 11,000 audience members.
