Join the Storytelling (r)Evolution at Actors Theatre of Louisville

In my life, I have felt the enduring significance of Black church organizations. These churches house meetings for social activism and spiritual growth, and encourage weekly fellowship. For all who attend, all are welcome—for the most part. The formative role that queer people have in Black church culture makes the unending condemnation from church leaders especially unacceptable. Despite gradual steps forward in creating religious safe spaces for queer identities, a reckoning has yet to come that fully receives Black, queer identities into the religious scene. Jonathan Norton invites this reckoning with his masterfully written play, I AM DELIVERED'T.

Our 2023 Impact Report offers perspective not only on where we’ve been, but also where we are going as an arts and culture organization as social enterprise.

Sept. 6, 2023—Kate Hamill’s thrilling Dracula is back by popular demand this fall! In this inventive adaptation that bounces between humor and horror, Hamill reimagines Bram Stoker’s vampire classic as a full-throated battle cry against toxic masculinity. No damsels in distress, no romanticized villains—just a gleeful stake through the heart of the patriarchy. Performances are in the Bingham Theater, originally scheduled Sept. 6-17, 2023, now extended through Sept. 24.
