“I wanted to show the not-as-glamourous parts of being a black, queer person in the world, in a non-traumatic way. But like truthful.”

In Memoriam: Alan Wasser

We join the theater community in mourning the loss of Alan Wasser. From 1996 to 2008, Alan was a steadfast member of our board, helping us usher in the next generation of American theater artists. He will be greatly missed by our board, staff, and the many artists whose work he supported.
