About National Black Theatre

Founded in 1968 by Dr. Barbara Ann Teer, an award-winning performer, director, visionary entrepreneur, and champion of the Black Arts Movement, NBT has a ground-breaking legacy: as the country’s first revenue-generating Black art complex, the longest continually run Black theater in New York City, and one of the oldest theaters founded and consistently operated by a woman of color in the nation. Since its founding, NBT has invested over $10 million in 350+ original works by Black artists and garnered numerous accolades, including NYTimes Critics Picks, Obie Awards, Lortel Awards, a TONY award, and an EMMY nomination. NBT has also been included in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C.
