Our Principles
Do more with less.
New audiences want meaningful experiences.
Embrace not knowing.
True wonder in the theater is possible.
Theater is most exciting when artists can make lots of work quickly and audiences can see the work cheaply. In the spirit of community theater, we move fast, operate frugally, and keep prices low. We love problem-solving within constraints.
We offer intimate live events that respect the audience’s time, money, and desire for authenticity. We love mixing the high and the low, the elaborate and the simple, comedy and tragedy. Life is too short for novelty for its own sake. Life is too short for irony without sincerity. Life is too short.
Our theater is a home for artists to push themselves and take risks, and for audiences to be surprised, delighted, challenged, and moved. We make no assumptions about what is possible, but we want every artistic choice to be generous. We like to do hard things together.
There is a world that only theater can access—one that, more than any other art form, recreates the childhood spirit of make-believe.
