The Black Theatre Network is comprised of artists, educators, scholars, students, and theatre lovers who are dedicated to the exploration and preservation of the theatrical visions of the African Diaspora. For 35 years, the Black Theatre Network has collected, processed and distributed information that supports the professional and personal development of its membership (comprised of individuals engaged in the full range of theatre professions, professional and community theatres and organizations, and academic institutions). The Black Theatre Network (BTN) is an inclusive organization, run by a volunteer board, and two part-time employees that:
Provide Black Theatre artists and scholars with a milieu for communicating and exchanging ideas
Provide a national forum for the examination, discussion and planning of theatre events
Encourages the production of plays about the Black experience at home and abroad
Disseminates employment & career development opportunities in theatre to its members
Supports development & production of theatre events at local, regional, and national levels
Honors & celebrates the pioneers & practitioners who have impacted the American Theatre
PURPOSE:
BTN’s main focus is to expose the beauty and complexity of the inherited theatre work of our African American ancestors, and to take this work to a higher level. We seem to unite those who share this rich inheritance to assure that we all work TOGETHER.
