“I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being.” – Thornton Wilder

Theatre is not just entertainment. It is an opportunity for us to gather together and acknowledge our most essential commonality—our shared humanity.

When we laugh together, think together, feel together, then we have no choice but to acknowledge that we’re in this together.

Our many differences may have the power to divide us. But gathering regularly as a community to explore our differences and celebrate our common causes can heal those divisions.
