For 40 years, Lorraine Hansberry Theatre has created career-building opportunities for Black writers, performers, designers, technicians, and crew, producing works that celebrate Black history and perspectives. This legacy has only been possible thanks to the generosity of our donors, patrons, and volunteers, whose support allows us to uplift Black voices, foster emerging artists, and build a more resilient community.
Your support—in any amount—employs an actor, lights a set, prints a program, and keeps this historic theater thriving. We simply couldn't be here with out you.
"Black artists, and to a greater degree Black female and nonbinary theatre makers, are not receiving the representation they deserve on our stages. Transforming the systemic racism of the American theatre demands financial investment. It is crucial to pledge resources in order to amplify the works of talented artists of color and to ensure that diverse, essential stories take center stage.”
