ArtsEmerson's 23/24 Year in Review

Page 1


A YEAR IN REVIEW

2023/24

At ArtsEmerson, the art is the prompt, and the conversation is the point. In a moment where conversations around social justice, the climate crisis, and our own identities can feel isolating and divisive, art reminds us that we can enter these discussions through the lens of communal healing. Our 23/24 Season invited us to lean in and explore the hard questions, and entertained us with innovative storytelling along the way. Artists from Wampanoag Nation, Rwanda, Canada, Norway, New Zealand, and Jackson Heights, Queens came to Boston to further our commitment to bring the world on stage, connect across difference, and ultimately deepen our connection to one another.

We celebrated a historic season of four sold out shows, welcoming an unprecedented number of new audience members to our venues. Our film series, Projecting Connections and Shared Stories, engaged audiences with a stellar lineup of films reflecting the diversity of our city. And the beloved Play Reading Book Club celebrated its ninth year, creating a space for audiences to engage deeply with the art and artists on our stages.

This past year, the ArtsEmerson Black and Indigenous Initiative work continued as we supported residencies and the commissioning of Black and Indigenous artists, and held the Black and Indigenous Futures Convening in September in our theatre spaces that gathered thirty scholars, artists, and arts leaders from across the country and was supported by HowlRound, our sister organization.

Inclusive design of all our programming is our priority, and we work with artists and experts in the field to offer accessibility services including American Sign Language, Audio Description, Open Captioning, and assistive listening devices. This past season, we provided a touch tour for the audio described performance of Moby Dick, and welcomed service animals into our venues.

All of this is thanks to you. We are incredibly proud to share the impact of our work from this past year. Thank you for showing up and joining us in our work serving our community - of artists, patrons, and community members.

Since our founding, ArtsEmerson has pushed the boundaries of theatre - expanding whose stories get told on stage and screen and sharing bold, live art from all over the world that speaks to our lived experience in Boston and beyond. As we look ahead to our 14th year serving the Greater Boston community, we can’t wait for you to join us.

You make daring work like this possible, and we thank you.

“At

ArtsEmerson, we care deeply about uplifting bold artists committed to re-storying and challenging the dominant narrative. To tell the stories often untold and lean into uncomfortable truths is an act of courage and bravery that can leave our world better than we found it.”

Mission

We engage all communities through stories that reveal and deepen our connection to each other. By cultivating diversity in the art and in the audience, we ignite public conversation around our most vexing societal challenges as a catalyst for overcoming them.

Vision

A thriving world where art ignites empathy for ourselves and each other.

Our History

ArtsEmerson is the professional presenting and producing organization of the Office of the Arts at Emerson College. Founded by Robert J. Orchard in 2010, the year the US Census confirmed there was no single cultural majority in Boston, we committed to building a cultural institution that reflects the diversity of our city. We operate from the core belief that the arts are for everyone. By “putting the world on stage” ArtsEmerson quickly established a reputation for presenting outstanding work from around the globe — work that emanates from the language of theater, yet pushes the boundaries between theater, dance, music, and media arts. And by bringing diverse programming to neighborhoods all over the city, we have become an integral part of Boston’s efforts to transform our bitter history of segregation into a resilient legacy of equity and unity in diversity. ArtsEmerson’s first seasons focused on building a world-class cultural institution, raising awareness of our existence, and forging a reputation for artistic excellence. ArtsEmerson was first named “Boston’s Best Theater” by Boston Magazine following its 2012/13 season.

By December of 2013, WBUR critic Ed Siegel cited ArtsEmerson in his annual “Best of” round-up, saying: “In four short years they have established ArtsEmerson as one of the most important cultural institutions in New England.” In 2013 we expanded our focus, through a variety of civic engagement activities, setting out to become an effective partner in our city’s efforts to promote social cohesion. When naming ArtsEmerson “Boston’s Best Theater” again in 2015, Boston Magazine wrote, “Most impressive, ArtsEmerson realizes its global vision while remaining audience-focused and community-centric.” ArtsEmerson is an Indigenous-led organization currently under the leadership of Interim Executive Director and Director of Artistic Programming Ronee Penoi (Laguna Pueblo/Cherokee).

A YEAR IN THE CINEMA

Cinema extends beyond beautiful visuals, offering opportunities for connection through shared experiences and conversations. Building on past successes, we continued to provide our audiences with choices of screening platforms – including both Digital Cinema and in-person screenings at the Bright Family Screening Room and beyond, increasing our audiences by 39.2% from 2022. We expanded our commitment to inclusivity by offering one of our screenings with open captions and ASL interpretation and a conversation built around accessibility in the arts. We featured films from diverse voices and the engaging post-screening discussions infused our film programming with both vibrant energy and deep exchanges on challenging, thought-provoking, and unifying topics.

BOSTON ASIAN AMERICAN FILM FESTIVAL

We were honored to be the home of the Boston Asian American Film Festival (BAAFF) once again – this year celebrating its 15th anniversary. BAAFF hosted a myriad of in person screenings, while keeping digital content for an at-home audience. BAAFF showcased 50 screenings to over 1500 patrons locally and internationally which included robust community engagement and lively post show filmmaker discussions. A significant highlight included a special preview presentation of the Amazon series, Expats and talkback with Director, Lulu Wang.

PROJECTING CONNECTIONS

ArtsEmerson continued its fifth year of the series Projecting Connections: Chinese American Experiences. Using film as a lens to reflect on the vast lived experiences of the Chinese population in the Greater Boston Area, this special series featured films and post- show curated discussions designed to build and foster meaningful community conversation.

A Projecting Connections first – Projecting Connections on the road! Projecting Connections partnered with BAAFF, NAAAP Boston (National Association of Asian American Professionals) and the Museum of Science to present Starring Jerry as Himself on the Museum of Science’s 5 story domed, Mugar Omni Theater IMAX screen. The film which chronicles the gripping true story of a family who document how their immigrant father Jerry, a recently retired Florida man, was recruited by the Chinese police to be an undercover agent, only to discover a darker truth, played to a sold out audience.

SHARED STORIES

A central staple of our programming is the consistently thought-provoking Shared Stories series, also in its 5th year. This film series aims to foster community, shared conversations, and experiences through cinema. It pairs complex, topical films with the engaging discussions they inspire. The series aspires to create a common space where diverse experiences intersect, encouraging the exchange of stories and ideas. Shared Stories is presented in collaboration with BAAFF, CineFest Latino Boston, and the Roxbury International Film Festival.

A highlight of the series featured the Emmy winning documentary, Dawnland, which tells the untold story of indigenous child removal in which the stakes of family separation policy are no less than cultural survival. Going behind the scenes of the MaineWabanaki truth and reconciliation commission. The film uncovered little known truths that paved the way for a critical, open conversation with Adam Mazo, CoDirector, Ronee Penoi, Interim Executive Director of the Office of the Arts & ArtsEmerson/ Director of Artistic Programming and moderated by Lisa Simmons, Director/Artistic Director, Roxbury International Film Festival.

ADDITIONAL FILM

Beyond the Projecting Connections/Shared Stories framework, ArtsEmerson is also happy give a home to Boston Baltic Film Festival, CineFest Latino Boston, The Bright Lights Film Series, Roxbury International Film Festival and Wicked Queer Film Festival as well as featured a special Day of Remembrance presentation of Reparations, in collaboration with NEJACL (New England Japanese American Citizens League).

FILM SPOTLIGHT

LIQUOR STORE DREAMS

Closing out the successful Shared Stories season was the sold out Liquor Store Dreams, presented in partnership with the KACL (Korean American Citizens League).

Liquor Store Dreams tells the story of how two Korean American children of liquor store owners reconcile their own dreams with those of their immigrant parents. They confront the complex legacies of LA’s racial landscape, including the 1991 murder of Latasha Harlins and the 1992 uprisings sparked by the police beating of Rodney King, while engaged in current struggles for social and economic justice.

“Liquor Store Dreams” is one of those quietly powerful films that may appear on the surface to be little more than an extended home movie, but should prove to have a devastating and emotional impact on all who are lucky enough to see it.

— Peter Sobczynski, RogerEbert.com

A panel featuring filmmakers and influential community leaders from diverse backgrounds highlighted how film can ignite crucial conversations, bridging our similarities across different communities and serving as a catalyst for change. The engaging screening culminated in a special reception featuring Asian inspired signature cocktails. View the full panel conversation here

A YEAR IN CIVIC ENGAGEMENT

PLAY READING BOOK CLUB

ArtsEmerson’s Play Reading Book Club (PRBC) is a theatre literacy and community engagement initiative that provides radical access to scripts, artists and conversations within the theatre. The PRBC returned for a 9th year, exploring We Are The Land, The Real James Bond…Was Dominican, Moby Dick, and Book of Mountains and Seas in Roxbury, Chinatown, Allston, downtown Boston, East Boston, and online. Over the course of 4-5 weeks, participants unpacked the text through dialogue, discussion, and behind the scenes resources from ArtsEmerson, guided by trained teaching artists from the Emerson College Masters in Theatre Education.

Participants:

• Do a deep dive into a play via group readings, facilitated discussions, and access to resources that interpret the context.

• Meet new people and increase social connectedness.

• Obtain tools and resources to help navigate the process of attending the theater.

• Attend the studied play together with a sense of belonging and ownership of our venues.

PUBLIC DIALOGUE

Each year ArtsEmerson continues its dedication to gathering artists and audiences across differences to better understand our shared and unique experiences. These moments of connection can be found from PRBC sessions to facilitated audience discussions in our theatres and in the screening room.

THE POINT

ART IS THE PROVOCATION; CONVERSATION IS THE POINT

The Point is a conversation series that invites audiences to explore big questions in intimate settings. Hosted by a member of the ArtsEmerson team, local and national luminaries will offer their points of view on the urgent questions surfaced by artists on our stages.

In 23/24, ArtsEmerson hosted Our Relationship to Land. Our Relationship to Land was inspired by our collaboration with The Trustees of Reservations presenting The Silverman Project and our presentation of We Are The Land from Wampanoag Nation. Panelists included Adam Silverman (Common Ground artist) and Tess Lukey (Trustees), anchoring us in different understandings of how the land nourishes us and holds our history. Our Relationship to Land was also live streamed.

ARTISTS IN RESIDENCE

One of the founding principles of ArtEmerson was to make sure artists had a home to create work on their own terms. Below you can find a description of some of the collaborations happening from our 23/24 Artists in Residence.

Beth Morrison Projects

ArtsEmerson and Beth Morrison Projects have an exciting history with each other, bringing breathtaking stories to Boston through new opera, including Book of Mountains and Seas that closed out our season. Last December, founder and Creative Producer Beth Morrison, project artists, and creatives came to Boston to develop the Slaying of Innocence, a music-theatre work that emerges from the lived experience of African American men who have served and are currently serving prison sentences. ArtsEmerson is also a commissioner of this important work, and we look forward to including the stage-ready piece in a future season.

Kiki Katese

Fresh Sound Artist in Residence

In the weeks leading up to and during The Book of Life run, writer and performer Kiki Katese visited with Emerson graduate students and participated in a two-hour colloquium. Her residency also included a workshop of “I have a Drum,” her new piece that will be presented at the Edinburgh International Festival in 2025.

Chris Rivas

ArtsEmerson and Emerson LA collaborated on an inaugural cross-campus residency where The Real James Bond…Was Dominican star Chris Rivas spent one week at the LA campus developing Rough Magic. The goal was to support early work on this project before bringing it to Boston, where it opened our 24/25 Season.

ArtsEmerson is also committed to supporting the development of new works by innovative artists from around the world. Last season, we commissioned 11 artists, from Jamaica to California, with six artists from the Black and Indigenous Initiative (see page xx for more about this initiative).

ArtsEmerson continues to honor its commitment to the intersection of civic dialogue and artistic exploration through various internal and external initiatives, aiming to tear down division and invest in a more vibrant, connected community.

BLACK AND INDIGENOUS INITIATIVE

From 2021 to 2023, ArtsEmerson’s executive and artistic leadership was Black and Indigenous - a rare occurrence in an arts institution. We saw this as a unique opportunity to imagine a better, liberated future together for Black and Indigenous peoples – and by extension, all peoples. Thanks to the support of the Barr Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts, we are activating this future in our city through the shared experience of art and public dialogue. This work includes intercultural exchange and audience building, commissioning of Black and Indigenous artists, and a convening held September 2023 in our theatre spaces that gathered thirty scholars, artists, and arts leaders from across the country and was supported by HowlRound, our sister organization.

ArtsEmerson aims to carry forward our learnings from the past two years, with a goal to have moved the Black and Indigenous Initiative work into a core part of the fabric of ArtsEmerson.

ACCESSIBILITY

As a Mass Cultural Council Universal Participation-designated organization, we are committed to offering inclusive experiences for people of all abilities. We offer a variety of accessibility services for our patrons and community members, including ASL interpretation, audio description, open captioning, and assistive listening devices. The Accessibility Working Group, an internal cross-departmental group, restarted in fall 2023 after a pause during the pandemic. Led by Guest Experience Manager and Accessibility Services Manager, the AWG is charged with communicating and ideating inclusive practices across the organization. We are grateful for the Mass Cultural Council and Liberty Mutual Foundation, whose ongoing support makes our work creating a culture of inclusivity for people of all abilities possible.

INTERNAL RACIAL AND CLIMATE JUSTICE

Since 2010, our work has been anchored in our commitment to driving civic transformation around social justice. We are expanding on this commitment by centering racial and climate justice in our day to day work. This past year, our Racial Equity Action Team (REAT) began convening quarterly to discuss past learnings on anti-racism and decolonization, and outline actionable steps we will take at the individual, departmental, and organizational level. One of our goals is to ensure all staff have the same foundational training on anti-racism and decolonization. To this end, REAT has contracted VISIONS, a local organization experienced in DEI work, to provide a racial justice-focused three-series workshop for all staff members beginning in summer 2024.

Inherent in the work toward racial equity is climate justice, and we have also taken the past year to prioritize actions supporting climate justice in our daily work. This includes transitioning to digital tickets and programs, updating our venues with energy efficient lighting and equipment, and exploring sustainable practices around international travel. We are also building new relationships with the Indigenous community and artists in our region, and deepening our commitment to be in right relationship to land and history.

A YEAR OF PHILANTHROPY

WORLD ALIVE!

We were thrilled to host our 8th Annual World Alive! Gala Celebration on Saturday, October 21st at the Revere Hotel in downtown Boston. We gathered with friends, artists, and community members and supporters to celebrate our 23/24 season. We were proud to honor Edwin Lee Gibson (pictured above) with the 2023 Distinguished Artist Award for his artistic excellence, advocacy, and impact. Mr. Gibson performed in the ArtsEmerson production Detroit Red and currently stars in the Emmy nominated FX television show, The Bear, playing the role of Chef Ebraheim.

GARDEN PARTY

We hosted our annual Garden Party, supporting the Gaining Ground Fund, on Sunday, June 2nd at the home of Raynya and Omar Simmons. We are so grateful to Raynya and Omar for opening up their home for us and it was a beautiful, sunny day to celebrate. We were joined at Garden Party by Dianne McIntyre, dancer and choreographer of In the Same Tongue, and Adam Hyndman, producer for In the Same Tongue. In the Same Tongue is a Gaining Ground Funded production, and part of ArtsEmerson’s 24/25 season. It will be presented in Boston in September 2024.
