Local Theater Company discovers, develops, and produces exceptional new plays and theatrical works. We provide artists a fertile environment to grow their work, and cultivate audiences for new plays by including them in all stages of new play development. We believe theater is a local experience. When you elect to join an audience, you create a new community where, for that brief span of time, everyone is a local.

Our programing includes our Local Lab new play festival and two world premiere productions annually. We engage our community in the process through a robust audience engagement program and a community inspired new play program called Local Listens. We also offer literacy-through-playwrighting programs at no cost to Title 1 middle schools.
