Read Between the Lines

With a mission to provide affordable access to high quality theatre arts education and performance opportunities for all ages, BackStory Theatre believes community is enriched by theatre. In 2022 we provided 50% of our programming for FREE to community members who might otherwise not have access to our unique activities. BackStory uses theatre as a powerful tool to build confidence, model pro-social behavior, and explore diverse experiences by building new stories together! In 2009, BackStory started with one class of 6 preschoolers and grew quickly as our community embraced our work! In 2018 we moved out of our storage units, staff homes, and vehicles to get our very first grown up studio space! Although it's tiny, we've loved our first little home! It allowed us to expand our outreach and deepen our curriculum and program impacts. Now, we've outgrown our little space and are excited for the next adventure! Our new space will feature multiple classrooms, a comfy waiting area, private lesson studios, and a performance and gathering space for use by many groups.
