On The RISE: July Events

RISE (Representation, Inclusion, & Support for Employment) seeks to build a more equitable and inclusive theatre industry by centralizing DEIA tools and resources through a network of partners and a national personnel directory that focuses on folks from underrepresented backgrounds, including but not limited to people of color, women, trans, nonbinary, deaf, and disabled theatre professionals.

RISE Theatre is a program of Maestra Music.

Our network partners are hosting some great events this month. Check out what’s On the RISE in the RISE Theatre Network.
