This site has been assembled to show through both statistical data and personal testimonies that this way of working is not only outdated, it’s unsustainable and unethical. It’s particularly harmful to BIPOC artists, disabled artists, as well as artist caregivers trying to grow their families. By continuing to uphold this structure, we are literally forcing people out of this field as well as barring entry to the next generation of workers who can bring new life to it.
We invite you to learn from the information on this site, learn how you can affect change by signing our petition, and most importantly, please leave your own testimony of your experiences with these work practices. We are collecting this data anonymously so that we can provide the entire theatre community with the information needed to learn why and how these changes must be made now.
In addition, we are leading free public information seminars based on our work, which you can sign up for as well as view recordings of past seminars.
