The List 2020 For the past five years The Kilroys, an LA-based collective of playwrights/producers, continuing the fight to achieve gender balance in the American theater, have been advocating for equal representation on our American stages, and have released an annual list of under-produced plays by woman, trans...

BLACK LIVES MATTER.

The murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery are only the most recent incidents of police violence and brutality perpetuated against the Black community. The systems that perpetuate police brutality and systemic racism in this country must be dismantled if we are to truly come to a place of freedom and liberty for all.

One way of dismantling these systems is by creating space for Black voices. It is also through education, listening, and allyship by white people.

While ReVamp has not been actively producing work, we will continue to advocate for Black voices to be heard in the arts and beyond. We all need to be better at making room at the table. It'll make the work more worth having. We will continue to post resources and voices that we MUST be amplifying - not just today but every day.

*A NOTE ON INCLUSION AT STATERA

Women: Statera recognizes the limiting nature of the binary use of woman. We serve and welcome anyone on the gender spectrum who identifies either always or some of the time as a woman. We also serve and welcome those who are non-binary, while recognizing that not all non-binary people identify with aspects of femininity.

Intersectionality: StateraArts works through an intersectional lens for gender parity. We understand and acknowledge that systems of oppression and discrimination are interdependent and span all social categorizations such as race, class, gender, ability, religion, parental status, size, age, and sexual orientation as they apply to a given individual or group. Addressing one spoke of systematic discrimination or disadvantage means holistically addressing them all.
