Our Values

Champion Creative Expression

We recognize that pursuing a successful career in the performing arts is not easy. We shape challenges into opportunities, championing theatre creatives throughout the industry. We are an institutional voice advocating for artists fated to use theatre as a mode for self-expression.

Support Growth

We provide lifelong mentorship to stimulate growth in the performing arts at every stage. Our comprehensive theatre network provides resources and support throughout a life cycle—we are a conduit for activating creative potential.

Realize Brave Vision

Brave work is born out of stories that must be told. We help realize courageous creative vision to bring important artistic work to our world, using theatre as a tool for cultural progression.

Make Excellence Known

We make theatre an essential part of the zeitgeist by demanding attention for excellent work. We safeguard the performing arts as an immediate cultural necessity, and ensure that great work’s legacy endures.

Validate Diversity

Founded by seven suffragettes, advancing diversity is part of our DNA. By realizing and celebrating brave vision we validate stories that are as diverse as the American people. We are steadfast in our commitment to diversity as a means to advance the richness of American theatre in any cultural climate.

Create Connections

For creatives, we create an inclusive community that bridges the gap between novice and master to build organic personal connections. These relationships ensure that young talent is heard, guided, and given an opening for success, privileging them to reciprocate this mentorship for the next generation. For our audience, we foster, honor and illuminate theatre that inspires human connection, provokes emotional experiences, and contributes to a more empathic world.

Inspire Artistic Greatness

We pull back the curtain on our industry to educate our audience about how theatre comes to life, illuminating compelling stories in the performing arts. We inspire artistic greatness on a micro and macro level, from showcasing industry technique to sharing motivational stories about overcoming adversity through artistic production.
