Our Core Values
Parity
At WTF we embrace an expansive understanding of the word parity and actively work to disassemble the concept of personhood existing in a finite, binary capacity. All of our work is written, directed, and produced by women and TGNC artists.
Inclusivity
WTF seeks to platform a fully diverse spectrum of voices through all of our programming and by intentionally cultivating and practicing community care.
Accessibility
WTF recognizes that all people have access needs and deserve to have those needs met. In order to fully meet the access needs of our community, we offer an ever-expanding range of accessibility services and programs.
Testimonials
"There is such a feeling of freedom, knowing I am being welcomed and supported so thoroughly. It's been a joy to work with the team, as always."

""This is the first time I have been asked to play a role that fits with my ethnicity and nationality."

""WTF gives underrepresented artists not only a space to tell their story, but a space to tell their whole story, with every nuance we sometimes miss out on in the mainstream."
