our mission:
EXPLORE. CHALLENGE. ENTERTAIN.
OnWord Theatre firmly believes in the notion that theatre is the very reflection of society.
We are dedicated to producing classic works visualized through a contemporary lens, contemporary works rooted in our past, and new works highlighting our collective path forward.
We are artistic contributors who are guided by passion, social relevance, and multi-accessibility regardless of ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, and socio-economic status.
OnWord Theatre seeks to produce works that are thought-provoking with an aim to illuminate the complexities of the human experience while sparking critical dialogue and awareness at the highest levels of professionalism and integrity.
