#savethegreer, Greer Garson, Santa Fe, New Mexico, Santa Fe University of Art and Design, SFUAD, Collage of Santa Fe, CSF, Midtown Campus, Inspire, Transform, Engage, Theater, LiveArts Conservatory, Live Arts, LiveArts! Santa Fe, LiveArts!, Live Arts!, Education, #SavetheGreer Repertory LiveArts Rep is a new kind of performing arts company. We aim to remove the obstacles that prevent artists from being able to get the most from their talents and creativity. In conjunction with LiveArts Conservatory, company membership will provide full-time employment that pays a reasonable salary. We expect that 60% of company members' time will be spent on creative projects, 30% on teaching and mentoring, and 10% on community engagement. Similar models have been successful in programs like PCPA in California and ART in Massachusetts. Where LiveArts Rep departs is our unique process for project development. Instead of an artistic director making all of the producing decisions, each company member in turn has the opportunity to lead a project. This artist chooses the material, defines the vision, and decides what position they and other company members will hold in the production process. The rest of the company will offer support, guidance, and their creative talents to bring the leader's vision to fruition. We want all company members to be financially, emotionally, and artistically invested in the success of each project, and the company at large. Through this process of creative cross-pollination, LiveArts Rep will produce dynamic creative projects that challenge and inspire our local community, and enrich America's performance landscape. The artistic vision of the company will be steered, but not dictated, by the artistic director. Project leads are allowed to follow their inspiration, and in place of a rigid style coming from the top, all projects will adhere to a list of artistic values. LiveArts Rep projects are: Entertaining We are not trying to make elitist art that is only enjoyed by the chosen few. Our projects have a broad appeal. People like them. They are not academic or sermonic. They are brave yet accessible. Moving LiveArts Rep projects make you feel something. Some will be comedy, some tragedy, many something else all together. But all projects will take the audience on an emotional journey, and leave them changed. Creative Every project must be something that we have not seen before. Does that mean we are only producing new works? No. But every project must give something original to the audience, the artists, and the global theatre community. Intentional It is not enough to be entertaining, moving, and creative. Great art must also be intentional. It must have a reason for existing. It should not proselytize, but it should have something to say and a reason to say it. We are living in an era of unprecedented connectedness. People are losing interest in the stuffy formal performing arts organizations of the past and are searching for something new. By sharing our passion and our process through online channels, LiveArts Rep will get people excited about our artists, and the work they are creating. We will be candid and transparent with fans and followers about the goals, challenges, and victories of creating in this new way. We will move past the barriers that have been holding back our industry. Historically, theatre has reinforced racial stereotypes. It has tokenized and subjugated people of color, and systematically excluded anyone who doesn’t fit into its mold. It’s time to move intentionally away from that model. The core of this creative process is radical equity, diversity, and inclusion. We use the faces, voices, and creativity of our diverse company of artists to build authentic connections with the local community and create a following that stretches beyond the borders of Santa Fe, and eventually around the world. These followers become donors, audience members, and even students at the conservatory. The company feeds the conservatory and the conservatory feeds the company, and all the while we create groundbreaking art that doesn’t exist anywhere else.

Let’s Keep it Fabulous! 🎭 House Rules — Because Every Show Needs a Little Structure (and a Lot of Sass) 🌈 Respect the Show, Respect Each Other All are welcome here (age 21+) — this is a safe, celebratory space for every body and every identity. Lead with kindness, be present, and help create the kind of joyful, inclusive vibe we all deserve. 📸 No Flash, Just Fabulous Take pictures and tag us, but leave the flash off. During burlesque numbers, please don’t photograph reveals or moments of undress. You’re welcome to capture the tease, but once the clothes come off, phones go down. Respect the art, respect the artist. 👠 Watch Your Step Our performers don’t always stay on stage — they might strut, twirl, or death-drop right past your seat. Keep your feet and belongings clear unless you want to become part of the act (and not in a cute way). 🧨 No Villains in This Act No hate, no heckling, no bad vibes. We’re all here to shine. Anyone bringing drama (of the wrong kind) will be shown the exit — no encore. 📣 Hoot, Holler, and Hype Them Up This is cabaret, darling! We love a loud crowd. Clap, cheer, shout, snap — your energy fuels the performance. Don’t hold back! 📿 Cultural Respect & Consent This cabaret embraces bold expression — from drag and burlesque to stand-up and satire. Some acts may parody, provoke, or play with identity — that’s part of the art. What’s not part of the deal? Touching performers without consent, mocking real identities, or crossing audience lines. Keep it playful, keep it respectful, and let everyone shine. Join our email list and get access to specials deals exclusive to our subscribers.

Santa Fe, LiveArts!, Live Arts!, Education, #SavetheGreer About Us LiveArts Santa Fe was founded in 2017 as a response to the announcement that Santa Fe University of Art and Design (SFUAD) would be closing. Former College of Santa Fe (CSF) faculty member Cheryl Odom and alum Rueben Greenwald started a grassroots movement on facebook called #SaveTheGreer, which mobilized alumni from both colleges, and members of the local performing arts community to ensure that the Greer Garson Theatre Center remained a performing arts venue. The movement was incorporated as LiveArts Santa Fe in 2019, and became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2023. With a mission to inspire, engage, and transform, LiveArts is working to create a vibrant and inclusive arts community through innovative performances, education, and accessible spaces. The organization is committed to bringing fresh perspectives to the arts and is advocating for revitalizing the Greer Garson Theatre Center to make it a hub for creativity and culture in the 21st century. Mission To engage, inspire, and embrace a multi-cultural, neurodiverse, and multi-generational community by eliminating barriers in the performing arts. LiveArts Santa Fe aspires to amplify all creative voices through offering innovative and inclusive artistic work & education. Vision LiveArts Santa Fe envisions a future where every voice is heard, every culture is celebrated, and every generation is connected. Through our commitment to entertaining, inspiring, and educating, we aim to create a space where the performing arts are a beacon of empowerment, unity, and transformative change for all. Values Community Our greatest strength lies in the people who surround us, forming a web of relationships that fosters a sense of belonging. LiveArts extends invitations to individuals from diverse backgrounds, encouraging people to come together in conversation and appreciation. Entertainment Regardless of the medium, genre, or subject matter, the arts should entertain. Entertainment transcends mere amusement. It offers human connection through experience, creating unity through laughter, awe, and empathy. Inclusion Beyond filling a room with a diverse array of voices, inclusion is about empowerment and genuinely listening to what those voices have to share. LiveArts strives to foster an inclusive environment that cultivates open-mindedness and an appreciation for diverse points of view. Innovation The performing arts industry has entered a new era. In the spirit of positive change, we strive to restructure power systems, foster true ensemble-driven innovation, and promote collaborative art making. At LiveArts, we celebrate new ideas, uplift unique perspectives, and encourage people to challenge the status quo. Our Founding Members In addition to Cheryl Odom and Reuben Greenwald, these are the visionary trailblazers who laid the foundation for our creative journey – the esteemed founding members of LiveArts Santa Fe. With passion, dedication, and a shared commitment to fostering artistic excellence, these individuals brought to life the vibrant tapestry that defines our organization. Each founding member contributed a unique blend of expertise, creativity, and unwavering enthusiasm, shaping LiveArts Santa Fe into the cultural cornerstone it is today.
