Together with the UK’s theatre industry we stand together against all acts of racial discrimination and violence.

We acknowledge the pain and inequality that is the result of racism, and we seek to learn from BME arts leaders, practitioners and communities: to work together and ensure that in all it does the ABTT provides the support needed for all to heal, grow and thrive. We welcome dialogue that is led by those with lived experience, to ensure that we are contributing to positive change, and actively reaffirming that black lives matter.

We will reach out to understand what we can do better.
