In this episode of the "State of Field" podcast, Dan Johnson discusses his personal journey and commitment to Access, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (ADEI) in Michigan's theater scene, focusing on the challenges faced by marginalized communities in traditionally white/Eurocentric spaces. He shares insights from his work as an advocate for ADEI at the University of Michigan and explores strategies for creating more inclusive environments, including the use of tools like inclusivity audits and meaningful casting choices. Drawing from key ADEI resource publications, Dan reflects on how educators and theater professionals can promote self-determination, antiracism, and decolonial practices in youth theater education, ensuring underrepresented voices are heard. Throughout, Dan emphasizes the need for ongoing, tangible action to foster genuinely inclusive, equitable spaces in theater, while also offering hope for a more diverse and empowered future in both youth and professional theater.

In this follow-up podcast interview I will be asking Lauren about her experience as a presenter at the 2024 American Alliance of Theater Educators (AATE) conference in Chicago. We will be exploring the purpose of presenting seminars and workshops not only as a recent EMU ADTY MFA graduate but also as a seasoned Theater and Drama educator, director and Theater in Education colleague. Lauren reveals her secrets of successful middle school classroom management as well as building community through sharing her love of Theater & Drama Education and how working with youth has inspired her ongoing love for seeing her students grow and excel in their theater making skills. Lauren is definitely someone to look up in theater education and I am so excited for this opportunity to sit down with her and listen, learn and get excited about working with teens in Drama and Theater Education. Â
