MISSIONTheater in Asylum joyfully pursues a theater of learning, empathy, and growth. With rigorous research and an ensemble-driven approach, we create performances to investigate our past, interpret our present, and imagine our future. We strive to offer space to question, space to process –asylum– for theater and conversation that challenges and empowers ourselves and our community.
VISIONA world where the stage is a continual forum for question, debate, beauty, and progress. We seek a freer world and believe theater is both the means and the ends.
