Black Theatre United (BTU) has announced it will partner with LaTosha Brown, founder of Black Voices Matter, and Brooklyn Voters Alliance to present a Voter Town Hall September 9. The event will be held at 6:00 PM at New World Stages.
The discussion will revolve around the importance of the Black vote, the historical significance of this year’s election and how artists, groups and individuals can make a difference in today’s political climate. The evening will also feature performances from Young Gifted and Broadway, Mel Chanté, and Liisi LaFontaine, the latter of whom will perform "Freedom" from the new musical Gun & Powder.
BTU, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, was founded to build pathways of access and opportunities for Black and other students and industry professionals who have been historically marginalized in the theatre community.
