002 - A World of Abundance with Candelaria Silva-Collins

Written By Adam Roberts

Candelaria Silva-Collins connects arts and culture to community and community to arts and culture. She leads the Huntington Theatre Company’s Community Membership program, making the arts accessible to audiences of any income level.

In this episode:

  • Why works by artists of color are subject to cultural pimping.

  • Why theaters need to engage BIPOC communities for more than just butts in seats.

  • Why maybe we don’t need to do Shakespeare for the next ten years.
