Creative Producer & Strategist Connecting Ideas, Investments, & International Impact
Natalie Rine is a New Orleanian–New Yorker and cultural producer focused on transnational theatrical exchange and innovative production models. She is the founder of Broadway DNA, a theatrical agency connecting new work across borders through international producing, licensing, and touring. Blending her experience in Broadway investor relations, North American tour booking, IP merchandise and location-based entertainment deal structuring, in-situ and immersive work, and international theatrical licensing, she is a dream architect of a transnational theatre ecosystem that values cultural mobility justice.
She is a Co-Director and Producer of the New York Times–acclaimed Citizen Arts International (formerly Down to Earth), NYC’s first free, citywide festival of multidisciplinary performing arts in public spaces. She also serves as Development Director for PITCHBLACK Immersive Experiences, a U.S./Argentina collaboration which uses the teatro ciego technique to create immersive, blind-accessible, multi-sensory performances in total darkness.
An independent theatrologist and Executive Committee Member of the American Theatre Critics Association, Natalie’s writing on performance distribution, adaptation, and multi-author collaboration has been translated into French, Japanese, and Slovak, reflecting her commitment to advancing creative producing practices across borders.
My Approach
I'm on a mission to help theater-makers turn their dreams and ideas into licensable, profitable properties — ones to empower you to see your work reach audiences all over the world.
I am a creative producer, collaborator, critical thinker, and an even better dream architect of what’s possible.
My personal work is informed by notions of Henry Jenkins’ participatory culture, Nuno Bernardo’s transmedia storytelling, and Gordon Kaufman’s philosophy of God as Creativity.
I speak art + finance + diplomacy:
Producer/Artist psychology
Budgets
Arts & Entertainment Law
Cultural policy / grant language
Licensing economics
Intermediate Korean

Investors
Studios & Rightsholders
Government funds
Lawyers
