As American Repertory Theater of WNY looks to the future and resume bringing diverse theatrical productions to the stage, the company is establishing transparent means of operation. In particular, we see the need for improvement upon representation in casting. We are currently working towards making ART a safe space that ensures an inclusive artistic future for everyone.
ART/WNY will also renew it's stance behind the company's mission statement and remain diligent in execution:
"The mission of the American Repertory Theater of WNY is two-fold. First, the mandate of The American Repertory Theater of WNY is to produce both classic & contemporary theatrical works, and support a new generation of playwrights. These productions are purposefully created to embody innovation, diversity, and inclusivity, thereby expanding the cultural and intellectual experience of the theatergoer. Second, the American Repertory Theater of WNY will serve as a catalyst for community dialogue and action that will result in sustained economic growth and increase the collaboration within all sectors of our community".
The company's new motto will reflect it's belief in this community

Current Plans are being made for productions beginning in late 2020-21
Because of the ongoing public health policies being fluid in NYS, ART/WNY cannot commit to any dates until permission is granted and the company is in compliance with health rules.
As soon as ART/WNY receives permission the company will resume producing theater works and other performance arts presentations.
