Mine 4 God Productions (M4GP) is proud and excited to announce its 11th Annual Columbus Black Theatre Festival (CBTF) held this year July 7th – 9th at the Columbus Performing Arts Center in the Van Fleet Theatre.

Our theme this year is “The Right to Choose” and the seven plays that were selected meet our theme touching on mixed marriages, gender identities, sexual lifestyles, educational choices, racial biases, abortion and “coming out” to parents. These plays, written by playwrights from across America, come to life on stage under the direction of local and New York Directors and by the performances of actors from central Ohio.

This year we also brought back our six-week summer Youth Writing and Acting Workshop. The youth will perform their original monologues at the Columbus Metropolitan Main Library on July 1st and also at the theatre festival. We thank the Greater Columbus Arts Council for their generous Project Support Grant, Wild Goose Creatives our fiscal sponsor and Lady Butterflies of Ohio for their continued support.
