Education-led
Learning is at the heart of everything we do: learning about ourselves, each other, our craft. Every class and performance is an opportunity to be engaged in personal growth. More practically, we also offer enriching opportunities to students and pre-professionals throughout our season, as they hone their technical, management, performance, and front of house skills. It takes a village to run a theatre, and ours is hungry to learn.
Human-first theatre education
Strengthening awareness, confidence, and empathy turns people into better better humans and better performers. Thatβs why we obsessively nurture these traits with every student and in every class. Our classes are taught by professional actors and experienced practitioners who are 100% on board that we go farther together, and that thereβs room for everyone.

FOR OUR PATRONS
βA night at the theatreβ shouldnβt be stuffy or expensive, so weβre making it more accessible for everyone. We produce plays that are wonder-inducing, thought-provoking, and relevant to todayβs audiences. We hope you come early and stay late, lingering at the bar over meaningful conversations.
FOR OUR THEATRE-MAKERS
We produce work at the highest industry standards, and are working to evolve the theatre into a more just, equitable, and kind work environment for our actors and technicians.
