The Artistic & Creative Producing Team
Co-founded by A.A. Brenner
and Danielle Hope Diamond,
Siq specializes in bold stories
rarely told.
A.A. Brenner and Danielle Hope Diamond have always made stories that stick.
Ads for GQ, Gucci, Adidas, TikTok, Microsoft, Snapchat, and more. Top Fellowships, Off-Broadway, Edinburgh Fringe, and London Theatre runs. TV Shows like SNL. Award-winning Films featured in 30+ festivals. All before they turned 30.
Now they’re taking everything they know about bold storytelling and running a theatre company with it.
Meet The Siq Collective. Bold stories rarely told. Plays you actually want to see. Crafted by a queer and trans-led company.
