“Now the two come together again for Brown’s Southern California premiere, this time with Allen cheering Brown on from the audience. Allen, who is a Wallis board member, was excited when she heard Brown’s company had been programmed. When I inquired about her excitement, Allen spoke of the Wallis’ commitment to ‘ensur[ing] the integrity of artistic diversity and inclusivity’ in their programming and partnerships. As the Wallis prepares for a month-long “celebration of women and their art and their creativity,” Allen emphatically believes, there ‘couldn’t be a greater, more wonderful artist to bring [to the Wallis] as Camille Brown at this time.’”
