For us at IATI Theater, PRIDE has always been a time for celebration. A time to celebrate the LGBTQIA+ artists, team, and audience members that make our day-to-day and theater projects possible. A time to celebrate the legacy of decades of tireless fights that have won many civil rights and freedoms for the LGBTQIA+ community.
QUEERTÁSTICO is our annual fiesta de orgullo where we get to uplift and highlight the voices of LGBTQIA+ artists working in the performing arts. It is QUEER. It is FANTÁSTICO. It is QUEERTÁSTICO!
