Andrea is beyond thrilled to be inducted into NYCLU as an Artist Ambassador alongside Shaina Taub, Leigh Silverman, November Christine, Celia Keenan-Bolger, and many more deeply respected colleagues and artists! As artist ambassadors, the class of 2023 will work to bridge civil rights and the arts in New York State.
Andrea is proud to join the Board as Board Chair of the NYC-based theatre company National Queer Theater. NQT is committed to creating a space for queer artists and fostering the LGBTQ community at large through art for social change.
Andrea has been invited to present “Queering the Musical Theatre Stage” alongside her co-presenter, K. Woodzick, at the National Statera Foundation Conference on October 7th, 2018. The foundation’s mission is to take positive and strategic action to bring women+ into full and equal participation in the theatre. The Statera Conference is all about nourishing an environment of gender balance through the lens of intersectionality.
With co-founder Royer Bockus, Andrea has launched RING OF KEYS: a collective of queer women+, trans, and GNC artists working on and offstage in musical theatre! The mission of RING OF KEYS is to build a supportive, national network for its members, as well as serve as a hiring resource, through its public Member Directory, for those looking to work with professional artists who self-identify as lesbian, bisexual, queer, femme, trans, and non-binary.
