New Leaf Theatre imported a note.

Wednesday at 1:21am
Photographer and International Rock Star Lindsay Theo blessed us with her talent at last night’s final dress run of Six Years… you can see the results of her work (and our work) on our Six Years production photos page, and in the new slideshows peppered throughout the rest of the New Leaf site.

Nothing brings about renewal like a good retreat.

Mission:
New Leaf Theatre creates intimate, animate theatrical experiences which renew artist and audience.

That is our mission. It is what we do, every day, every time we hit the stage to present a work of theatre. But what does it actually mean?

To the members of New Leaf Theatre, the concept of renewal is central to everything we do. Renewal, for us, is about touching the lives of everyone we come in contact with, from audience members to business partners, actors to designers, stagehands to company members.

With every thing we do, our aim is to remind people that life can be as good as they make it. We want to touch others - audience and artists alike - with the art we create, to fill them with a sense of joy through fully experiencing life.

We also seek to create a quality of work that is both intimate and animate. We want to bring a sense of intimacy and sharing, of communal experience, to the stage. We want each production we create to be animate, infused with life and soul and vigor.
