Mission Statement

The founders of Pollyanna Theatre Company believe that theatre is a powerful teaching tool that speaks to people of all ages in a unique and powerful way through a variety of visual, aural, and emotional languages. Therefore, theatre should be a part of all general education from Kindergarten through adulthood. Toward that end, The Pollyanna Theatre Company strives to work along side educators to inspire, motivate, and teach audiences of all ages. Although the company’s primary focus is upon young audience members, the ensemble performs top quality theatrical productions that speak to and illuminate the human spirit and condition for all ages.

Description

Pollyanna Theatre Company is dedicated to producing both old and new plays that invite audience members to reflect upon themselves and the society around them in meaningful and constructive ways. We believe that theatre is a powerful tool for enlightening members of society both young and old.

By its very nature, theatre teaches by example. The ensemble strives to create true art that provides avenues for ethical and moral reflection and discussion.

Quality and artistry are important and are at the heart of The Pollyanna Theatre Company’s work. All members of Pollyanna’s ensemble are paid professional theatre artists who have professional experience and training in theatre. While remaining a non-commercial theatre, The Pollyanna Theatre Company will work to compensate artists for their talents and efforts while keeping ticket prices within the reach of families in our Central Texas service area.
