Authentic Theatre Ensemble, or THE Theatre, was recently established in 2020 to bring exciting and thought-provoking theatre to Central Wisconsin along with arts-based community engagement. We are in the process of becoming a fully recognized 501c3 not-for -profit performing arts, educational, and community awareness organization.
EMANCIPATION REFLECTION PROJECT
THE Theatre is committed to improving the world around us and has created an activity to encourage self-reflection and continue the important work of the Black Lives Matter movement.

CONTACT THE THEATRE WITH YOUR STORIES AND THOUGHTS
THE Theatre is in the process of devising an original piece of documentary theatre about the current Political landscape in Central Wisconsin including the Black Lives Matter movement and its relationship inpredominantly white communities.
It's important to have an authentic representation of all Central Wisconsin voices and their views on the issue.

Who are you supporting in the November election?
-
If you attended a BLM Protest or counter rally
-
If you actively chose not to go to any rallies
-
If you disagree with the need for BLM events or protests
-
If you have a new understanding of BLM or your role within the movement
-
If you have become more or less politically actve than you've been in past years.
