Description
Decolonizing the Theatre Space: A Conversation explores the profound impact of 2020's global events on the arts industry. The book examines whether this was a moment or a movement, and what fundamental changes are needed to support the ongoing decolonization of arts organizations worldwide. Featuring over 20 interviews with pioneering Black cultural leaders from senior executive positions in the UK, Europe, US, and Africa, this book sheds light on the guiding ambitions, strategic plans, and visions for the future. It documents the pressure on organizations to confront and change their racial and ethnic make-up, providing valuable insights into the ongoing shift towards greater diversity and inclusion. By learning from those who have already implemented these changes, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the steps needed to support their own vision for the future.
