BLACK LIVES MATTER
We support and stand with our vibrant and courageous community of Black artists, writers, actors, supporters, audiences and volunteers who have participated in making Undermain Theatre a space where people meet to try and understand our world and elevate our humanity.
We support and stand with those who call for justice. Only when all members of our community are truly respected and protected will we be the community we aspire to be in our collective consciousness.
We join our colleagues at other arts and cultural organizations across the country in repeating:
We see you. We hear you. We stand with you.
