CALLING ALL GENERATIVE ARTISTS
We are seeking authentic and complex stories about communities of color that are bold, risky and unapologetic. We are seeking generative BIPOC artists (i.e artists from any discipline that create new works for the stage) exploring herculean ideas, exploding the theatrical form and who are unafraid to re-imagine what theater can be and who it is for.
The selected artist will receive a $10,000 commissioning award as well as funding and development support for a year through The Movement’s Ladder Series. Support includes monthly check-in meetings and dramaturgical support from The Movement’s artistic team and a public staged reading.
MEXODUS
We've also joined the co-producing team of Brian Quijada and Nygel D. Robinson's live-loop musical experience Mexodus, directed by Producing Artistic Leader David Mendizábal. We co-produce along QM Productions, compromised of Producing Artistic Leader Deadria Harrington and longtime The Movement friend Liz Carlson. The show is lead-produced by P3 Productions and Audible.
