About
About Face Theatre (AFT) exists to create exceptional, innovative, and adventurous theatre and educational programming that advances the national dialogue on sexual and gender identity, and challenges and entertains audiences in Chicago and beyond. We accomplish this through an annual Equity Mainstage Season, year-round Education Programs, and opportunities for new play development.
We envision AFT as a nationally recognized, intergenerational, and community-focused LGBTQIA arts organization by creating theatre that fosters awareness, understanding, and celebration of all forms of sexual and gender expression. By portraying the diverse and nuanced lives of LGBTQIA people positively and realistically, we hope to educate and empower audiences and incite social change in the push toward equal rights for all.
Additionally, our educational programming seeks to increase the safety, empowerment and leadership capacity of LGBTQIA youth, and to catalyze youth-led civic dialogue and action within schools and communities.
