Theater producers Barbara Broccoli, Lia Vollack, Alecia Parker, Patrick Daly, and Travis LeMont Ballenger have joined forces to launch the Theatre Leadership Project, an ambitious nonprofit aimed at providing resources to programs that seek to diversify commercial theatrical leadership.
The new organization has partnered with Black Theatre Coalition and Columbia University s Prince Fellowship to establish a three-year fellowship program which will train, mentor, and place the next generation of Black producers, general managers, company managers, and stage managers in an industry where Black professionals are dramatically underrepresented.
Set to begin in fall 2021, the fellowship programs will be open to candidates across the country who desire careers in commercial theater management or production.

Leah Harris, formerly of Dallas Theater Center and Milwaukee Rep, will manage the program.
âIt is our belief at TTLP that long-term financial support alongside training/mentorship and networking opportunities will provide successful outcomes for the program s participants. We are thrilled to be in partnership with existing organizations such as Black Theatre Coalition, supporting the leadership work they are already doing at the forefront of change,â said Broccoli and Vollack.
In collaboration with TTLP, Black Theatre Coalition will create six two-year General and Company Management Fellowships with six Broadway general management offices. After the first two years in Black Theatre Coalition program, TTLP will work to assist fellows with job placement.
