d’bi. Farewell Fundraiser and Gala
Hosted by The Watah Theatre
The Watah Theatre is sad to announce its closure after 4 years of supporting and developing the legacy of Black Theatre through the production and cultivation of Black & diverse works. BUT this is not a time to mourn, it is a time to celebrate all that Watah has accomplished in just 4 years!
On June 26, The Watah Theatre will be hosting the D’BI. FAREWELL FUNDRAISER GALA which will feature live performances, music, food and a good old-fashion dance party!
