EQUITY INITIATIVES

Three Bone Theatre is committed to being an anti-racist, inclusive and accessible theatre company.

WHY THIS MATTERS

At Three Bone Theatre our mission is to use theatre as a catalyst for conversation and change in our community. The work we produce focuses on stories that disrupt the traditional theatrical canon and center the lives of people who have historically not been represented on stage.

 

We believe that in order to successfully serve our mission it is critical that we approach our work through a lens of equity. The purpose of these initiatives is to take actionable steps towards being an anti-racist, inclusive, and accessible theatre company. To hold ourselves accountable and to provide a transparent resource for the Charlotte community to hold us accountable.

Land Acknowledgement

 

Three Bone Theatre is based in Charlotte, NC. We acknowledge that we rehearse and perform on the traditional, ancestral, stolen territory of the Catawba Indian Nation, including the Catawba and Sugaree tribes. The Catawba Indians have lived on their ancestral lands along the banks of the Catawba River dating back at least 6,000 years. You can learn more about the Catawba Indian Nation at catawbaindian.net.
