We hope those engaging with our events are thoughtful about how we each have different relationships to race, disability, gender, class, sexuality, age, citizenship, and many other factors. We can all use both critical thinking and generosity (with ourselves and others) when mistakes are made, since we are all in a constant process of learning. We appreciate feedback from audience members about their experiences with our projects, including experiences with our collaborators, other audience members, event venues, and the content of our shows. |
