NTC Member Steve H. Broadnax III directs one of the virtual world premieres for ​#WhileWeBreathe: A Night of Creative Protest which begins tonight 7-29-20.  The evening features short works written and directed by theatre alums, to benefit the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, The Bail Project, Black Organizing for Leadership and Dignity (BOLD), BYP100 Education Fund, Forced Trajectory Project (FTP), The Justice Committee, and SONG. Here's the Broadway World article. 

Go to the #WhileWeBreathe website: "We are a group of BIPOC Artists and Allies, unconditionally committed to ending police and state brutality, institutionalized racism and the interrelated structural issues of racial and economic injustice, both in the broader world and in the theatre and entertainment industries ... While We Breathe: listen, learn, act."
