The Black Theatre Workshop is partnering with NAC English Theatre in an unprecedented new shared curation model for the national stage. NAC English Theatre has committed to the annual appointment of a co-curating company in residence, beginning in 2021-2022 with the invitation for a Black-mandated theatre organization to envision their mandate through a national lens. As the inaugural Co-Curating Company in Residence, Black Theatre Workshop, the oldest Black theatre company in Canada, will have agency over half of English Theatre’s programming resources for the 2021-22 season. Black Theatre Workshop, currently celebrating its 50th anniversary, will have the opportunity to envision its mandate of fostering and showcasing Black Canadian art and artists on a national scale.
