BIG PLANS

We know we have some work to do to be a better ally to theatre artists in our community who identify as Black, Brown, Indigenous and Persons of Color. We are, in fact, a team started by a group of friends (like many teams) and that it is a group of very pale persons. Just as the art we produce, largely dark comedy, is known as a very white, very male genre.

We want to change our team and help change the genre.

We are currently listening and learning from artists and producers of color on how to change. We can immediately offer roles and positions within the company to BIPOC Artists, and additionally Artists who identify with a Disability, and LGBTQIA+ Artists. And we hope that by the end of 2023, we can have a board that is representative of what Milwaukee looks like, meaning no more than 50% white and male.

And of course, we are working towards a goal of providing a living wage when artists are on our team and you can help. It’s going to take a major cultural shift, but YOU can be the start of something big. We want to be a leader in Milwaukee so that ALL ARTISTS can earn a living.

You make it possible for us to bring visceral, human stories to Milwaukee as all of our productions are 95% funded by donations from Constructivists supporters like you.

But giving today also helps fund:

  • ACCESSIBLE TICKET PRICES

  • PRODUCTION ROYALTIES

  • RENT FOR REHEARSAL AND PERFORMANCE SPACE

  • SET MATERIALS

  • COSTUMES

We truly cannot make great art without you.

BE THE DONATION THAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE.
