our mission:

Championing girls and women onstage & in the community through theatre education

OUR VISION

We envision a world where girls and women take center stage — leading with courage, connecting across cultures, and building movements for change through the stories only they can tell.

ONE MISSION, MANY STAGES

Our Programs

Three young girls smiling and holding colorful flyers for an event called Youth Performance Troupe, standing indoors.
Four girls standing and holding papers in a workshop or classroom, with a woman sitting in the background, shelves with supplies, and various tools and items on the table.
Two women, one in a red dress with white pinstripes and the other in a pink patterned outfit, are engaged in a conversation. The woman in red has her hands clasped over her chest and appears to be speaking. The background includes green leaves and a light-colored wall.
A woman with long, curly hair and glasses sitting in a cafe or restaurant, with her hand raised near her face. There are chairs and a door with glass panels in the background, and snow can be seen outside.
