We're thrilled to announce our new Artistic Directors! After a national search, the Alliance Theatre Board of Directors has named Tinashe Kajese-Bolden and Christopher Moses as Artistic Directors. This appointment follows Kajese-Bolden's two-decades-long career as an actor and director and four-years-long role with the Alliance as the BOLD Associate Artistic Director and Moses's twenty-year long career with the Alliance, most recently as the Dan Reardon Director of Education and Associate Artistic Director.

The pair, both deeply rooted in Atlanta’s arts, cultural, and civic communities, have been serving as Interim Artistic Directors since Susan V. Booth’s departure to become the Artistic Director of Chicago’s Goodman Theatre in October 2022. This appointment marks the first time in its 55-year history that the Alliance has appointed two Artistic Directors, a decision that will support the Theatre’s expected growth over the next five years and will strengthen its role as a cultivator of new works for all audiences and leader in arts education.

“On behalf of the Board of Directors and in partnership with the leadership of The Woodruff Arts Center, we are delighted to announce the appointments of Tinashe and Chris, two nationally recognized artists and producers with long-standing connections in the Atlanta community and theater field, as the Alliance’s next artistic leaders,” said Jocelyn Hunter, Alliance Board Chair and Chair of the search committee. “Three things make them the ideal candidates for this role. First, each is extraordinarily talented. Second, they have had a remarkable impact on the Alliance during their period of interim leadership. Third, their vision for the theater’s continued relevance and growth is ambitious and compelling.”
