Practical Information
Accessibility
OCP will be a creative home that is for the community, by the community. They use theatre to break down barriers to ensure they reflect on their past, genuinely listen in the present and step into the future, together, to create a space of belonging for all individuals who share their valuable time and extraordinary talents with their community. As a community-based theatre, it is critical that they also specifically recognize the racial inequities and injustices affecting their community and their theatre industry. They must take this time to truly listen and learn, reflect on their own role in this work, acknowledge that they can and must do better and take actionable steps to ensure they are truly representing and reflecting their full community — on their stages, in the audience and among their staff and board. Only then can they fully use the powerful platform of theatre to help promote equity and change.
