Our Vision
We believe that theatre - done well and with passion - can transform lives and communities.
We envision a theatre that brings together not only audiences, but all segments of our community, a theatre that transcends differences by reminding us of our common humanity, one that inspires us to do better as people and as a people.
We envision a theatre that thrives as an essential, cultural, educational and economic component of our community - of our much-loved piece of the Ozarks, but also of our country and our world.

TheatreSquared, Inc. is a regional professional company of artists dedicated to producing exceptional theatre. Merging a strong artistic vision with innovative educational programs, TheatreSquared develops new audiences through creative partnerships, and fosters economic and artistic growth in Northwest Arkansas.
