An initiative of the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas at Austin, the Theatre 2020 Collection is seeking digital files from theatre professionals that could help future scholars and students understand this moment and how the theatre community responded. How has the COVID-19 pandemic impacted your career? Your organization or theatre company? How have your plans changed?

The project will be collecting stories and files throughout the duration of the pandemic. Contributors should simply register as an individual or an organization, and they will send a link to a Box.com folder with instructions on how to upload content. Contributors can choose to submit whatever files they are comfortable sharing that help document their experience or the experience of their organization. The Ransom Center will review submissions to ensure they align with the scope of this collecting initiative, and the files will be preserved and made accessible for research at the Center.
