Black Theatre Ensemble, like all theater groups on campus, has been faced with the difficult task of reimagining theater as a digital medium. Unlike other theater troupes, however, BTE is a unique, artistic social group on campus dedicated to celebrating Black art and culture.
“We’re here to be a resource,” Kay Kemp, CC ’22, BTE’s executive playwright and art director, said in an interview with Spectator. “We’re here to be teachers and to be a group of people you can talk to on campus and make friends. . We would love to have perfect productions everyone would but we are not solely focused on the product, we’re more focused on the process.”
