It’s a typical day for the employees of RiseUp, an education nonprofit focused on urban youth mentorship―Interim CEO Lisa is dealing with un-woke board members who can’t remember what organization they’re supporting, Gen X Melissa is trying to use the latest Gen Z slang in a sentence, Kiki thinks they’re being held back because they go by “they,” Nadine is too lazy to call IT even though she hasn’t received an email in a month, “cultural” consultant Nick is a total FREE-gan who spends most of the day raiding the staff lunch room for freebies, and Alkanna’s got the tea-flavored Lacroix on everybody. Will they take the time out of their day to…you know…check on the children? francisca da silveira’s not-for-profit (or the equity, diversity and inclusion play) takes a satirical look inside a fictitious non-profit going through it.

MASKS PROTOCOLS
Effective November 22, 2022, masks are optional, but recommended for patrons, staff, and volunteers in all public areas of CPT.

The events/shows where these performances are offered will be indicated on each event’s page. Patrons will be required to wear masks for the duration of these events. Per the CDC, the masks that offer the best protection against Covid-19 are N95, K95 or surgical. Masks will be available upon request at the box office.
