Equity – creating a fair and level playing field
Diversity – identifying, embracing and celebrating all perspectives
Inclusion – for everyone to feel engaged and a sense of belonging
“Diversity is everyone invited to the party. Inclusion is everyone dancing”
– Verna Myers
The Tower Theatre’s EDI group was set up in Spring 2021 to identify and remove barriers to greater Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. The group is led by Rachel Bothamley.
Mission Statement
Our ambition is to be a Theatre that reflects our local community. A theatre that is for – and includes – all people, celebrating a multitude of different voices and experiences.
Policy Statement
The aim of the Tower Theatre Company is to achieve greater diversity across our membership, audiences and decision-making bodies. The Company sees diversity as an opportunity to enrich the work we do and the relationships we build. Our inclusive approach will create an environment where all members and visitors will feel welcomed, safe and be treated with respect and dignity. We aim to nourish creativity, remove barriers and highlight the voices of under-represented and historically oppressed groups.
