Who’s Behind ROLOTECHS?
ROLOTECHS is the brainchild of DMV-based theater professionals Andrés Poch (he/him) and Tori Schuchmann (she/her), who are dedicated to advancing equity and representation in the arts.
Our Mission
ROLOTECHS exists to meet a critical need—for marginalized talent seeking opportunities and for theaters striving to tell authentic, inclusive stories.
For creatives and production professionals, systemic barriers often keep their voices and skills out of reach, silencing perspectives that could transform the stage. At the same time, theaters are eager to diversify but struggle to break free from narrow networks, limiting their ability to reflect the communities they serve.
ROLOTECHS bridges this divide. We connect underrepresented talent with organizations ready to embrace change, creating teams where collaboration, equity, and authenticity thrive. This isn’t just filling gaps—it’s building a theater industry that truly reflects the world around us.
How It Works
ROLOTECHS bridges the gap between talent and opportunity by providing a platform where creative and production professionals can showcase their skills, experience, and unique backgrounds. Using detailed profiles and tailored tags, talents can highlight their expertise and identity, making them visible to theaters seeking to diversify their teams.
For theaters, ROLOTECHS offers an intuitive way to search for professionals intentionally and inclusively, enabling them to broaden their outreach and build teams that reflect their communities.
