About The Theatre Leadership Project

Mission Statement

The Theatre Leadership Project seeks to create lasting change in the American Theatre by installing BIPOC leadership in the industry.

Focused on producing, general management, company management and stage management, The Theatre Leadership Project seeks to transform and strengthen American theatre by investing in mentorships, training, job placement, and long-term support for BIPOC creatives in key leadership positions. We do this by administering multi-year, funded fellowships across multiple areas of leadership.
