The theatre community is oftentimes neutral toward the church. Of course, not every theatre community member is against the church, but it has been Deborah Richardson-Moylan’s experience that most theatre artists are, at best, neutral toward the Christian faith, if not downright negative. This is not surprising given the general makeup of theatre artists: self-defined outsiders who have found community within theatre itself. Historically, evangelical churches have built boundaries between who is in and who is out. Typically, artists and creatives have been deemed out for centuries. Couple that with the high percentage of the LGBTQ+ community that have found a home within the theatre community, and it is understandable that the church has been viewed as unaccepting and unwelcoming, maybe even hostile. How, then, does one foster a faith family within the theatre community? As both pastor and theatre artist, the author presents this book to suggest how: (1) to create a faith family out of the theatre community, (2) to create a means by which topics of faith are presented in the lingua franca of the theatre community, while being inclusive to those in the LGBTQ+ community, and finally (3) to remain authentically loving throughout the process.
