ABOUT THIS SHOW

As questions about the need for diversity in artistic leadership at theaters large and small around the United States continue to be raised (as well as questions about the essential nature of what an artistic director does), Chicago's small theater scene has undergone significant turnover, with younger and more diverse voices being heard. Join Chicago Reader's theater and dance editor, Kerry Reid, for a discussion with Ian Damont Martin of Haven, Miranda Gonzalez of UrbanTheater Company, Karla Rivera of Free Street, and Kaiser Ahmed of Jackalope on what diverse leadership means and what needs to happen to continue nurturing the next generation of artistic and executive directors.
