2050 Legacy

2050 Legacy 2050 Legacy is a social justice theatre ensemble. We make the world we want to see onstage, in schools, on the street, in the U.S. and abroad.

2050 Legacy is a social justice theater arts organization based on the work of the late Project 2050. Project 2050 began as a youth based program created by the influential cultural theater arts company
New WORLD Theater in Amherst Massachusetts. Project 2050 was created around the projection that in
the year 2050 people of color would be the majority in the United States, and took a look at what

that
meant for all peoples in this country. Project 2050 inspired youth and audiences through dynamic social
justice hip-hop theater painting a picture of the future in 2050. For 30 years the work of New WORLD
Theater touched many people and made a significant impact on communities locally and nationally. In
the fall of 2009 after the unfortunate closing of New WORLD Theater, Project 2050 Alumni and affiliates
set out to continue the crucial and timely work of Project 2050 by providing opportunities for others to
engage in dialogues on social justice, community building, leadership development and art-making.

With everything happening - I just cannot agree that love will concur hate. People LOVE to hate - which is why Charlottesville is happening in the first place. Cultural intelligence, empathy and understanding can change hate. This is how 2050 pushes back - by fortifying our artists who are agents of this change. This is our call.

Exploring the privileges found in visibility. Taking a look into how some can choose who to interact with or not, and how an 'Invisible Man' has no choice but to see all those around them. Using striking imagery with poetry, music and spoken word to tell real life stories of inequality.

2050 is cooking up something good. See us at The Tank Theater in NYC at the end of March. We challenge and provide resistance the best way we know how. The stage is the protest. http://2050legacy.com/node/14

We will be exploring the privileges found in visibility. Taking a look into how some can choose who to interact with or not, and how an 'Invisible Man' has no choice but to see all those around them. Using movement and striking imagery with poetry, music, and spoken word.
