Providing opportunities for those who create the theatrical experience to express their art, entertain an audience, and receive the appreciation their efforts deserve.
Providing entertainment, in unique and intimate settings, that foster an appreciation for the arts.
Encouraging, with local arts organizations, collaborations that are innovative, effective and mutually beneficial.
Providing educational experiences, taught by experienced practitioners, for the various facets of theatrical production.
