Community Engagement
Art for Everyone
American Players Theatre’s mission is to perform timeless, challenging, poetic texts, with Shakespeare at the center, to the broadest audience possible. In 2023 APT created the Community Engagement department to broaden APT's audience and this ongoing work is grounded in the following tenets:
• Expand the range of perspectives, identities, and cultures that make up APT, while we work to make sure that all feel supported and empowered.
• Identify and Disrupt the structures, obstacles, and systemic forces that have excluded artists, artisans, and audiences.
• Invite and Welcome a diverse audience.
The goal of the program is to broaden APT’s audience through outreach and ticket programs that target racially diverse audiences and audiences under the age of 40, while making play tickets more accessible to audiences at all socioeconomic levels and of differing abilities.
For more information, or to bring your group to APT, contact Community Engagement Coordinator Anna Gonzalez at [email protected].
