Diverse City have spoken at conferences and events across the UK and internationally as experts in diversity and equality in the arts. Claire Hodgson and Jamie Beddard (Diverse City’s Joint Artistic Directors) and our experienced Associates have delivered keynote speeches, led panel discussions and contributed to debates and discussions about access and inclusion.
Diversity is central to our name, our art, and our values. Our mission is to make extraordinary shows that represent the world as it actually is.
We want to break barriers and transform performance to change the lives of performers, audiences and communities.
We are an engine of artistic and social change and our dream is a world where all identities are respected and valued.
