At DRT, we encourage collaboration and dialogue over the arts and the experiences of different communities. Our theatre is a platform for diversity, inclusion and equity, with an emphasis on the importance of creating a safe and inclusive environment for everyone. We foster an environment that celebrates multiple perspectives, acknowledges different forms of knowledge, and encourages everyone to express their true selves. DRT is committed to creating a community of theatre makers and theatre goers that actively strives to bridge cultural barriers, increase awareness, and spark meaningful conversations. Our productions feature stories and characters from many cultures, with works that reflect the rich human diversity in Durham, NC. Through our programming, we strive to create a meaningful and lasting impact on our theatrical community.
