About
Actors Theatre is an arts and culture organization as social enterprise, sharing experiences centered in a commitment to create a more just society through the ongoing disruption of the cycles of oppression, marginalization, and exploitation. Anti-racism and anti-oppression are essential in an ecosystem that has profited from the historic antecedent of plantation capitalism. In pursuing a synthesis of art and service, we have taken a deep dive into digital production and have become an interdisciplinary laboratory for a storytelling (r)evolution.
Land Acknowledgement
Actors Theatre of Louisville sits on the unceded land of many Indigenous communities including the Shawnee, Cherokee, Chickasaw, and Osage people. Indigenous peoples have always lived on the land that is now called Kentucky and continue to live here today.
