Building an antiracist theatre practice

Nicole M. Brewer’s guide frames antiracist theatre as a collaborative practice grounded in three principles: harm reduction, harm prevention, and relationship repair. It combines foundational ideas with self-reflection exercises focused on how position, power, and privilege shape creative work. Brewer also defines terms including “accountability,” “racism,” and “abuse,” and presents methods for interrupting patterns of abuse in theatre settings. The book’s scope reaches across the stage, classroom, and performing arts, connecting individual reflection with the shared work of changing how theatre is made.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Theatre-makers seeking frameworks for antiracist creative practice

Book overview

A how-to guide for theatermakers who want freedom from white supremacy in their creative practices

The Antiracist Theatre offers readers the tools and foundational philosophy to create their own antiracist theatre ethos and delve into its three core principles: harm reduction, harm prevention, and relationship repair.

Nicole Brewer, faculty at the David Geffen School of Drama at Yale and the originator of the Antiracist Theatre model, guides readers through self-reflection exercises designed to strengthen awareness of their own position, power, and privilege and uproot their racist practices. Brewer provides definitions of oft-used, but rarely defined terms like "accountability," "racism," and "abuse." She welcomes BIPOC readers and lovingly and playfully calls in white theatermakers as she outlines methods to interrupt patterns of abuse.

All who believe the way forward for theatre is antiracist and anti-oppressive are welcome. We each have a role to play. Join us in liberating the stage, the classroom, and the performing arts.
