A group of prominent Broadway theater producers, whose shows include The Band’s Visit, MJ: The Musical, Waitress and August: Osage County to name a few, are teaming with the Black Theatre Coalition and Columbia University’s Prince Fellowship to launch a major new nonprofit initiative to train and mentor a new generation of Black theater industry leaders.
Called The Theatre Leadership Project (TTLP), the organization will offer a program of three-year fellowships designed to diversify commercial theater’s leadership. Founding producers of the Project are Barbara Broccoli, Lia Vollack, Alecia Parker, Patrick Daly and Travis LeMont Ballenger in partnership with BTC and the Prince Fellowship (formerly known as Columbia’s T. Fellowship).
