Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe Receives Grant from Selby Foundation for Communications System

Arts & Culture

In order to help Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe implement the highest possible production standards, the William G. & Marie Selby Foundation has awarded a grant of $45,745 to purchase a state-of-the-art theatre communications system – a much-needed upgrade from WBTT’s previous one-way communication system. “Thanks to the funding from the Selby Foundation, we will be able to improve our artistic and production quality in the production of our professional theatre offerings as well as our community outreach and educational activities,” said Julie Leach, WBTT’s executive director. “The new communications system has already proved its value during our outdoor ‘Sistas in the Name of Soul’ shows this summer and recent indoor Stage of Discovery student production."
