Anti-Racism & Accountability

BIPOC in TYA

Amplifying Diverse Stories

Stages Theatre Company actively supports, amplifies, and creates opportunities for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) voices in Theatre for Young Audiences. Our commitment is to produce work that reflects the diversity of our audiences and communities.

Racially Conscious Collaboration

Stages Theatre Company staff and board participated with Tony Hudson, President and founder of Racially Conscious Collaboration for the foundational seminar on centering people and race. We were introduced to the tools for productive conversations about systemic racism and paving the way for systemic transformation at Stages Theatre Company. We will continue to work with Racially Conscious Collaboration as we continually update our strategic plan and develop additional tools to transform into an organization that serves everyone who comes through our doors.

“The RCC Foundational seminar and Certification Program were unlike any of the previous programs or workshops I’d been a part of. Tony Hudson and his team brought effective and accessible tools, training and coaching support to me and my board and staff. We plan to continue to work with Racially Conscious Collaboration through our upcoming strategic and long-range planning, and mission driven work to provide young people with a more racially conscious theatre for young audiences. I’m excited by the work we can do together, and thankful for their support.”
