About this organization
Mission
Cornerstone Theater Company has been making new plays with and about communities throughout Los Angeles and beyond for over 30 years. Nationally recognized as a leader in community engaged theater, our plays celebrate many voices as we strive to include people who have not been on stage or even seen theater. Combining the artistry of people with many levels of theatrical experience, we act upon the conviction that artistic expression is civic engagement and that access to a creative forum is essential to the wellness and health of every individual and community. Our plays are staged in theaters, parking lots, factories, schools and subway stations. Each venue is specific to its project and community; audiences pay what they can so our performances are always accessible to all.
About
Through the artist practice of commissioning and producing new plays, both original works and contemporary adaptations of classics, which combine the artistry of professional and community collaborators, Cornerstone builds bridges between diverse communities. A team of professional theater makers and Cornerstone ensemble members engage community members to participate in all aspects of the play development process, from script development to performance to backstage support.
