WE BELIEVE
Theater is a form of magic
That stands between us and a hostile world
Theater has metaphysical powers
It is not merely the making of an aesthetic product
Theater offers us an alchemical vessel
To transform our terrors
And for manifesting our dreams
By giving them story, color, shape, and meaning
Theatre at its very best helps us
Come to know our way forward,
Together,
Better
