Our Mission

We are a theatre company dedicated to the art in theatre and the theatrical in art. We celebrate the innovative, the provocative, the poetic. We are a theatre of image, word, and gesture. We seek texts that are issue-driven and inventive. As a theatrical laboratory, we explore, engage, and examine. As a theatrical training program, we nurture and challenge the theatre artists of the future. Cal Rep is committed not only to the survival, but to the evolution of theatre.
