The New Jersey Play Lab believes that everyone benefits when the stories and the worlds represented onstage are as rich in complexity as the world we live in. We believe that as storytellers, we have the ability to disrupt implicit understandings of what is “neutral” and who stories belong to. Therefore our casting policy is that for any role for which the race, gender identity, or physical ability of a character is not intrinsic to the story of the play and has not been expressly delineated by the playwright as such, we will cast as diversely as possible. Concurrently, we will always encourage our playwrights to think broadly and inclusively about who can inhabit the stories they create.
