A how-to guide for theatermakers who want freedom from white supremacy in their creative practices
The Antiracist Theatre offers readers the tools and foundational philosophy to create their own antiracist theatre ethos and delve into its three core principles: harm reduction, harm prevention, and relationship repair.
Nicole Brewer, faculty at the David Geffen School of Drama at Yale and the originator of the Antiracist Theatre model, guides readers through self-reflection exercises designed to strengthen awareness of their own position, power, and privilege and uproot their racist practices. Brewer provides definitions of oft-used, but rarely defined terms like "accountability," "racism," and "abuse." She welcomes BIPOC readers and lovingly and playfully calls in white theatermakers as she outlines methods to interrupt patterns of abuse.
All who believe the way forward for theatre is antiracist and anti-oppressive are welcome. We each have a role to play. Join us in liberating the stage, the classroom, and the performing arts.
Nicole M. Brewer is a distinguished guest speaker across the US, the UK, and Australia where she teaches and facilitates antiracist theatre workshops. A board member of Parent Artist Advocacy League, Brewer works to shift how the industry can become more proactive to the needs of caregivers. Brewer is faculty in the acting department at the David Geffen School of Drama at Yale.
