2020 has been a turbulent, transformational moment in our lives and in our art.

One of the most powerful tenets of theatre is its ability to enlighten and challenge social norms. We are pleased to offer new work this summer that explores our connections during a time of isolation. We had to cancel our 5th Annual Women in Theatre Festival due to the global pandemic, with our home base of NYC as one of the first epicenters of the virus. As we began to reimagine different ways our small company might still support the creation of new works by female-identifying playwrights, the entire world was embarking upon a widespread response to the longstanding, systemic racism that Black people in America continue to be subjected to. Project Y Theatre Company folks have joined in as individuals to unequivocally support, lending our bodies, funds, skills, and voices, to the Black Lives Matter movement. We intend to use our artistic platform as a producing entity to develop work in an environment that is dedicated to antiracist practices at every step of the artistic process.
