misson and values
MISSION STATEMENT
At Lazy Susan Theatre Co., we embrace the importance of the artistic process by creating a space that is celebratory of the art. From the early stages to the final performance, we work to cultivate an environment where both audience and artist feel a sense of home and humanness. We believe the need to create is a reason to create. We work to grow our theatrical community and foster a safe and inclusive place for artists to learn and explore.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE STATEMENT
At Lazy Susan Theatre Co., we believe the art of creation is a uniquely human act. We prohibit the use of generative artificial intelligence in the development of any text, images, or ideas. The work we put into the world is authentically designed by real artists who dedicate themselves to their craft. We recognize the harm that A.I. generated materials contribute to our planet and the intellectual property of artists worldwide.
DEAI STATEMENT
Lazy Susan Theatre Co. is committed to celebrating the diverse voices and experiences that create our global theatrical community. We are committed to supporting those who have been historically underrepresented because of their gender, gender identity, race, ethnicity, differing abilities, religion, or citizenship status. We recognize our privilege and hold anti-racism and anti-bias as part of our core values. We respect and celebrate our community and deeply appreciate those who enrich the great tapestry of Chicago.
VISION STATMENT
Lazy Susan Theatre Co. aspires to continually provide opportunities to artists and connect with our Chicago community.
