Our Mission
We welcome the community members of Pioneer Valley to take part in our annual playwriting competition, which invites submissions of scripts that tackle important policy issues. The winning plays have the opportunity to be staged and presented to the community.
The Policy Playhouse hosts town hall community events that provide a platform for constituents to share their personal stories with politicians, ensuring their voices are heard and included in the policy-making process. These gatherings create a safe space for storytelling and advocacy.
Our performance pathway program offers Pioneer Valley residents of all ages the opportunity to participate in plays, engage with community issues, and gain valuable acting experience without the long-term commitment of professional theater productions. Join us to explore your passion for acting while making a positive impact in your community!
