Falconworks' mission is to empower individuals and communities through theater in order to effect social change. We use theater to help artists and audiences see the world as it is, understand how it came to be that way, and imagine how to make it better.

The Program, like our other productions, examines an issue of importance to both Red Hook and the greater world. And like all of our productions, it will give the audience space to interact with the actors, to express their own perspectives, and to engage in dialogue in order to help everyone achieve a better understanding of the problem of white supremacy and how it impacts all of us.

Apart from exploring questions of social justice, we also want this production to be one step in helping New York get back on its feet. As you know, with theaters shuttered through the spring and perhaps summer, many people who work in this industry have no source of income or livelihood. The money raised through this campaign will go to actors, designers, and stage crew involved in creating the play. We understand there are many causes, some more immediate than ours, needing money and attention this spring, and so we thank you for your generosity in this time.  Thank you for your help in making the next few months brighter, and we look forward to seeing you at our show in the Fall!
