This is really exciting! I don’t super understand how “fellows” work but I love chances to uplift black voices. This director is especially exciting. TaNisha Fordham, co-producer of the 2018 Oscar® Nominated film, My Nephew Emmett, is a producer, director, writer, performer, educator, and content creator who, in 2019, was honored to have served as Mrs. New Jersey United States and currently serves as the associate director on Company the Broadway musical revival. Fordham was hired full time with Company after her Black Theater Coalition (BTC) fellowship; Fordham was selected as the directing fellow in October 2021. Fordham is also currently the Assistant Director of SuperHero, a new musical set to open at the Sheen Center for Thought and Culture in April of this year. I also learned that this Black Theatre Coalition Directing Fellowship provides a $50,000 annual salary and the opportunity to participate in the efforts of mounting a Broadway production. Each fellow in the cohort will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in their area of the industry, working alongside current industry leaders at the highest levels, learning the process of theater making from the executive, creative, and administrative areas.
