Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion
Amalgamation Theatre Collective is dedicated to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion within our company.
Our primary mission, “Everyone fits into the Amalgamation” embodies the goals we intend to uphold as a collective. We believe that the theatre is a place where everyone should feel included. As a collective, we strive to provide a safe and comfortable space for anyone and everyone.
Our company is committed to the inclusion of members from various communities (including but not limited to): LGBTQ+, BIPOC, AAPI, Latine, veterans, individuals who have disabilities, and any underrepresented individuals regarding gender, sex, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status.
Some ways we uphold these values include:
Pay what you can performances: Our productions will include a performance where individuals can pay what they can for their tickets. This is intended to provide access to a theatrical experience for people of any socioeconomic status who would like to see our shows.
Media Accessibility: Our website and social media uses colors that are checked against W3C’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). This ensures that any text written over background colors meets a minimum contrast ratio making it easier to read all of our media.
Seat Accessibility/Theatre Access: Our company will aim to make our venues as physically accessible as possible. We will make sure to note any accessibility concerns for various venues in our ticketing process and/or advertising materials.
No cost productions: There will never be fees to participate in an Amalgamation production. It is important to us that any artist can find their place in the Amalgamation, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
We understand that merely stating our intentions is not enough. As a company we will continue to listen and grow depending on ideas and/or contributions from our members. We will continue to listen and learn. We will continue to implement new EDI values. If you have any questions, concerns, ideas, or measures you would like to see implemented within our company, please reach out to one of our staff members by emailing Amalgamationtheatreco@gmail.com and we will be more than happy to discuss with you. Thank you so much for taking the time to read our statement. We will continually update this page.
