Project Number One
Project Number One was initially launched in 2020 as a job creation program in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and record unemployment in our field. It was also an experiment in prioritizing living wages for artists, even when faced with extraordinary challenges.
We are excited this transformative experiment has continued on for over 5 years! During this time we have provided ongoing staff positions for artists, increased budget transparency, and made significant pay increases to artists working on our productions.
