Why Pearl Cleage, Why Alliance Theatre?

Artistic Director Susan Booth and Resident Playwright Pearl Cleage discuss their working relationship at the Alliance.

"This just feels like a frame around a relationship we've been building for years but that the frame says you're central is something that we know that now our staff, our community, and the national field knows it in a big way."

"This time my relationship with the institution is much different, it's much deeper, and Susan talks a lot about opening doors and windows so there's room for everybody to come in to the work that we do and that's exactly the moment that I'm in, in my own life."
