Door Shakespeare Celebrates Diversity
We are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
Door Shakespeare Anti-Racism Statement
We, as the staff of Door Shakespeare, commit ourselves to look, with clear eyes, at the systemic racism present in our world, our community, and within our organization. To listen, without defensiveness, to the voices of BIPOC and Brown artists, audience members, and supporters. To understand, and work to become our best selves in order to dismantle deeply entrenched systems of oppression.
Much like our country, we at this theatre struggle to reconcile our aspirations with our day-to-day behavior. And we know we cannot remain silent in the face of the pervasive violence being perpetrated against BIPOC and Brown people. We must, in both word and deed, commit to being anti-racist, as individuals and as members of the Door Shakespeare community. We don’t say this lightly—we have much work to do.
We will continue to educate ourselves, to build on our work in this moment, and to desire to become a better and more inclusive theatre.
