Help us make more liberative art.

Three goals:

1. Make theatre telling stories by and about women, nonbinary and transgender folks

2. Help grow careers for theatre artists who are still underrepresented in the industry (including paying them.)

3. Build a community of people who love theatre and unique stories.

I chose the above picture, of Chloe Monroe in On the Train, written by Lisa Price. The image, and the play, show how important it is to understand that art and politics are absolutely intertwined. I believe that the work of The Shattered Glass Project  is imperative as a reaction to the increased marginalisation of women and trans identities, especially Black identities and identities of color. However, it doesn't stop there. If we are to imagine a world that truly liberates us, it is the art and messaging, like The Shattered Glass Project, that will help us envision how this liberation could be called forth. If we can see it, then we can break through to make it real.

What's it about?

Artistic Director, Rebecca O'Neil, founded The Shattered Glass Project five years ago, with a goal to create experiences that would lead to better stronger careers for these underrepresented theater artists - people like myself who needed opportunities in order to flourish and grow. We’ve had a great five years! We have worked with three different cohorts of our signature Incubator/Mentor Program. We’ve produced four main stage shows both on stage and on Zoom. We have provided script development workshops for over 20 new scripts, working with playwrights to craft better and stronger pieces of theater. 

Why you?

These great things we’ve accomplished couldn’t have happened without being part of a generous community - the collaboration and creativity of the artists, the hard work of our board of directors, and the financial and emotional support of our audience members. 

You are invited to be part of this community - buy tickets, volunteer, and donate to The Shattered Glass Project!

Your help matters in many ways, so here some other things you can do for me (besides making a financial gift!) as I work to build community for TSGP:

• Bring someone to one of our shows: invite any of your friends and family you think share our vision for building community and telling stories from unique perspectives. Your help matters.
• Follow us on social media. Share a post. (P.S. Most of us are GenX - an Instagram account was a stretch!)

• Sign up for our newsletter and ask a friend to sign up, so that more people are aware of us. https://www.shatteredglassproject.org/contact-us 
• Create your own peer to peer page at https://www.wagives.org/organization/Shatteredglassproject

Thank you for your continued support, both for me and all the artists making theater at The Shattered Glass Project.
