Rashaad Newsome receives The 2025-26 Lincoln Center’s Collider Fellowship.

Thrilled to join Lincoln Center as a 2025–2026 Collider Fellow! Over the next nine months, I’ll be expanding my explorations of robotics, live performance, AI, and film—pushing them together to shape new theatrical realities.
Through this fellowship, I’ll be researching and developing what theater can become when seen through a Black, Queer, and technological framework—spaces where liberation, futurity, and experimentation converge.
Grateful for the time, resources, and community this fellowship provides, and excited to build alongside my 2025–26 cohort.
