BSE is a queer black woman owned theatre network and directory that provides educational resources and fosters growth of the black theatre maker community. We have 3 main ways of engaging: BSE Talks- In person and virtual talks/interviews with panels of BIPOC theatre makers in the field. These talks serve to educate and inspire our communities about what it means to work in ALL areas of theatre. The BSE Connect-The international directory made up of self-created profiles that showcases black theatre resumes, theatre programs, performance art organizations, theatres and school departments. These profiles will be searchable via location. Individuals and businesses can join our database through monthly and yearly memberships. BSE Lit!- Educational pamphlets, graphics and books that are tailored towards professionals in other fields that haven’t considered careers in theatre. These will be available for purchase in digital and print.
