In conjunction with Mosaic Theatre's production of the Till Trilogy and Reflection Series
Who we see on stage, on screen, on the field, or on the court makes a political statement whether we want it to or not, creating the narrative of how we see this story, our country, and ourselves. National Players Tour 73 with a Black ensemble in Much Ado About Nothing helps re-envision who can or should play Shakespeare. Mosaic Theatre’s Till Trilogy is using theatre to continue the conversation of begun by Paul Robeson, Jackie Robinson, Halle Berry, or Venus and Serena Williams. Join Olney Theatre Center in collaboration with Mosaic Theatre for a conversation about representation of people of color in the arts and sports, particularly where we are now in shifting this narrative towards accessibility and inclusivity along with special guests Psalmayene 24, Yolanda Stanislaus,and Ariel Elizabeth Davis.
