What an incredible first quarter for Transition Stage Company and our visionary founder, Natalie Edward-Yesufu! We are thrilled and deeply honored to share that Natalie’s life’s work has been recognized as a finalist for the prestigious Duke of Edinburgh Film and TV Award with Disney Entertainment for Inclusion. This achievement places her alongside groundbreaking initiatives like Enter.Stage.Write and StoryTown - Ideas You Own, celebrating the power of storytelling and inclusion.
At Transition Stage Company, Natalie’s mission has always been to platform excellence by uplifting writers from all walks of life. She believes that stories and ideas are the foundation of our world, and that every story matters. This core belief inspired her to create a platform that amplifies diverse voices and brings their narratives to life.
What began as a bold vision in 2017—bootstrapped with Natalie’s own resources and driven by her unwavering determination—has blossomed into a powerful movement. We are immensely grateful to everyone who has trusted Natalie and Transition Stage Company as a conduit to serve creatives and champion their stories. A heartfelt thank you to the individuals and organizations who have supported this journey—your belief and encouragement have been invaluable.
This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait to share what’s next as we continue to grow and innovate. Here’s to the future and to continuing this inspiring journey together!
