National Queer Theater

National Queer Theaters supports LGBTQ+ youth and artists in NYC and beyond. Through the annual Criminal Queerness Festival, we produce new works from playwrights who are from countries where being queer is criminalized. Through Staging Pride, we provide after school arts education to trans and queer youth. Our annual budget is 250-300K and we pay artists $20-22/hour. Your small gift makes a huge impact!
