✨repost @blacktheatreunited :: In partnership with @ey_us, we successfully launched BTU’s discussion series The Business of Show with our “Meet the Founders” panel during #blackhistorymonth.

As we continue the work, we owe it to our ongoing initiatives and programs, such as our upcoming 2nd Annual (paid) #BroadwayMarketingInternshipProgram2023 (beginning June 26th to Aug 18th #applicationdeadlineMarch17GetThemIn👀) to also continuously keep our focus on asking for your SUPPORT.

Fundraising is an essential part of the effectiveness and execution of our evolution as an advocacy group. So we’re rebranding the widely celebrated #sundayfunday with #sundayFUNDday as we passionately ask you to join us in our efforts to manifest a more equitable community on Broadway and beyond!

Hit the #linkinbio and make a one time donation or support BTU long-term with a monthly subscription of your choosing. Every little bit helps!

Thank YOU for joining us.

My dearest Belz… My heart is so heavy to hear of

My dearest Belz… My heart is so heavy to hear of your passing, but how lucky was I to share so many wonderful and hilarious days on set, and beautiful nights of delicious food and great wines at your lovely home in Bozouls! I will miss your intelligence, your legendary acerbic humor, but more than that, your KINDNESS! If your last words were TRULY what was reported, you gave me one last laugh! Rest in Peace, my brotha and deepest condolences to Harlee and the family. Love you. 💛

In preparation, I watched the entire series. BRILLIANT and COMPELLING! Thank you OCTAVIA BUTLER for writing your masterpiece of a novel. It’s been a “long time comin’” to get to series!

My heart is broken for Pittsburgh and STEELER NATI

My heart is broken for Pittsburgh and STEELER NATION. FRANCO WAS THE BEST.

I met Franco as a teen when he made his singing debut at the legendary HOLIDAY HOUSE in Monroeville. My older sister had a HUGE crush on Franco, so we had to go! After the show, we waited around for an autograph. He was gracious and kind. A few years later, another sister married former Steeler, Greg Hawthorne, and became friendly with Franco’s wife Dana. So we’d go to the games and sit with the Steeler Wives, and after head to the locker room. Franco was always gracious and kind.

Cut to YEARS LATER, and I am producing my second Broadway show, August Wilson’s RADIO GOLF, and was raising funds for the production. I went to Pittsburgh for support, reached out to Franco, and without hesitation he became an investor, knowing that a Broadway play was no sure thing!

But that is who he was: kind, supportive, generous and giving. He truly cared about others.

In September, I invited Franco and Dana to be my guests at the CITY THEATRE COMPANY’S “BASH”. He tried to move his schedule around but alas he could not make it. It would have been great to be able to give a little back to him.

A tremendous loss for the Pittsburgh Community, STEELER NATION and me, personally. #ripfrancoharris🙏🏾🏈 #steelersnation
