The educational component of True Colors Theatre Company is the August Wilson Monologue Competition, which was begun in 2007 by Kenny Leon and Todd Kreidler, dramaturg to the playwright August Wilson, after his death in 2005. In 2009 the program became a national program exposing high school students across the United States to the works of August Wilson as well as their teachers. This educational program began in Atlanta, GA and has now spread to a total of eight regions: Atlanta, GA; Boston, MA; Chicago, IL; Los Angeles, CA; New York, NY; Pittsburgh, PA; Portland, OR and Seattle, WA. High school students compete in their region reciting monologues from works in August Wilson's Century Cycle. Finalists from each city advance to compete in New York City on the August Wilson Theatre stage. In 2013, True Colors was awarded the American Theatre Wing's National Theatre Company Grant. In 2018, Jamil Jude was named artistic director of True Colors beginning in the 2019-20 season. His motto is "True Colors thrives at the intersection of artistic excellence and civic engagement".
