Mission Statement
The Shakespeare Theatre Company creates, preserves and promotes classic theatre—ambitious, enduring plays with universal themes—for all audiences. Through the creation of provocative, imaginative, and accessible theatre, STC ignites a dialogue that connects the universality of classic works to the shared human experiences of the modern world. STC seeks to shape the present and future of classic theatre in America by providing audiences with rarely staged classics, international works, and modern plays that are destined to become classic; nurturing the next generation of artists and administrators while providing a home for established classical artists; and cultivating future patrons for the classics through the creation of responsive education and access programs.
About This Cause
About Us Over the past quarter of a century, the Shakespeare Theatre Company in Washington, D.C., has become “the nation’s foremost Shakespeare company” (Wall Street Journal) and the “region’s most dynamic theatre” (The Washington Post), and received more Helen Hayes Awards for producing than any other theatre. Under the leadership of Artistic Director Michael Kahn, STC has grown from its residence at the Folger Shakespeare Library to the Lansburgh Theatre in 1992 to the opening of the brand new Sidney Harman Hall in 2007. Our Mission The Shakespeare Theatre Company creates, preserves and promotes classic theatre—ambitious, enduring plays with universal themes—for all audiences. Our Vision We create theatre to ignite a dialogue that connects the universality of classic works to our shared human experience in the modern world. Our Values and Focus The Shakespeare Theatre Company produces and presents the highest-quality classic theatre productions across genres, bringing them to vibrant life in a provocative, imaginative and accessible style. With Shakespeare at our core, we explore plays of national and international relevancy—those with profound themes, complex characters and heightened language—through a contemporary 21st century lens. We expand the classic theatre repertoire in America by reviving and commissioning adaptations and translations of important forgotten works. We create impactful and responsive arts education and community engagement programs to connect audiences to the significance of classic works and themes. We provide a home for leading classical artists and a training ground for the next generation of theatre artists and arts administrators.
