We’ve created a new Community Advisory Board led by Ron Legler, President of the Hippodrome Theatre at the France-Merrick Performing Arts Center, to ensure Iron Crow Theatre continues to be able to serve its community as best it can. Comprised of leadership from a diverse array of theatre organizations in Baltimore, the Community Advisory Board focuses on supporting Iron Crow Theatre as it implements its revised and enhanced policies, ensuring that Iron Crow Theatre remains a safe space for all. In addition, the Community Advisory Board has been instrumental in helping us to develop a volunteer handbook for all current and future volunteer staff and guest artists who work with the theatre. We will be adding partners from the local queer and theatre communities to the advisory board over the upcoming season, as we continue on in our pursuit of a stronger, safer, and more inclusive theatre environment.
