First Born Theatre's Artists in Residence :)

The Artists in Residence program is a new, year-long initiative created by Mercedes and the First Born Theatre team, designed to support emerging artists with queer, BIPOC, or multilingual identities that are creating big, bold work! Each artist chooses to focus on an independent project that is supported by First Born through feedback sessions, community connections, producing support, dramaturgy, and more. 

Facilitator: Reena Goze

2025/2026 cohort: Max Borowski, Alexandra Fiallos, Ameer Idreis, Jenn Tan

To me, First Born Theatre is a space for messy works in progress-a place where you’re free to figure out what you’re trying to say as you say it. The result is stories that are full of life.
— Jenn Tan, 2025/26.
First Born really provides these organic opportunities while maintaining a space that leads with curiosity and passion.
