We're incredibly proud of every student, the dedicated teaching artists who guided them, and the BTU team who made this experience possible. Programs like Broadway Bound remind us of the power of access, mentorship, and creating spaces where the next generation of theatermakers can thrive.

Throughout the Expo, emerging designers had the opportunity to learn directly from industry professionals through panels, demonstrations, and hands-on conversations. We are so thankful to Nikiya and all of the other amazing professionals who came out to share their wisdom!

In the wake of George Floyd’s murder, Black Theatre United was formed from a collective commitment to action, advocacy, and lasting change within our industry.

Today, on his birthday, we honor George Floyd’s life and continue the work of amplifying voices, creating access, building opportunity, and pushing our industry forward.

The work continues. Always. 🖤

Last night’s Business of Show: Inside the Casting Process was everything we hoped it would be and more!

Hosted by BTU Collective member this space brought together artists, creatives, and industry professionals for an honest and insightful conversation about navigating the casting process. Huge thank you to our incredible panelists and for sharing their experiences, wisdom, and the kind of gems that stay with you long after the night ends.

What made the evening so special was the spirit of collaboration, connection, and community in the room. Whether you’re just entering the industry or have been in it for years, there was something meaningful to take away.

This is why Black Theatre United exists, to create access, conversation, and spaces that center and uplift our community in ways that matter. Thank you to the entire BTU team and everyone who helped bring this evening to life.
