The Acting Company develops emerging actors by touring theater coast-to-coast.
COMMUNITY COMMITMENTS
The Acting Company is first and foremost a Company, one comprised of all the performers both past and present. Beyond that, we are a cultural institution, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to serving the social good. We believe that these are important responsibilities, that we have an obligation to support and protect our members, and to champion their views in the larger world.
THE ACTING COMPANY
The Acting Company is the only professional theater dedicated to the development of young actors founded in 1972. Through its national touring repertories of classic and new plays, the Company has given two generations of recent drama school graduates the opportunity to hone their craft in challenging roles while bringing theater to small towns and major cities alike.
