The Black Experimental Theatre (BET) a.k.a. The Riant Theatre, was founded in
1979, as a not-for-profit, tax-exempt organization, by Artistic Director, Van Dirk Fisher. BET is a
theatre that entertains as well as teaches by nurturing and developing new
works by playwrights that encompass the historic and social progression of the
Afro-American and the contributions the Afro-American has made in the United
States.
Through the years BET has grown to include all nationalities (Asians, Afro-Americans, Hispanics, Anglo-Saxon, etc.) as its main focus, because the company believes that by furthering the understanding between the races, people can all advance and learn to live in harmony. The company celebrates their diversity and takes joy in sharing their cultural differences and similarities. To this end BET was founded. They acknowledge that theatre is an important tool that has been used for centuries to help people see themselves in a new light and achieve a new perception of themselves and the world in which they live. The Riant (which means merriment and laughter in French) has grown to become a place where artists (singers, writers, actors, directors, musicians, & visual artists) can come together to collaborate on new works and share ideas. WHO'S GOT GAME? is one of many projects that The Riant Theatre will present in the coming months.
