A community built on creativity, connection, and inclusion
A community is a group of people connected by shared interests, location, culture, or experiences. It provides support, identity, and a sense of belonging. Whether physical or virtual, small or large, communities shape people’s lives by fostering connection, collaboration, and mutual understanding.
Newtown Arts Company is a community built around a love of live theatre, welcoming individuals and families of all ages and backgrounds. It fosters an inclusive space where members can express their creativity, whether in the spotlight or behind the scenes. Though not a large theatre company, its support extends beyond the stage into the broader community. Members show up for one another at performances and local events, while local businesses sponsor shows and programs in exchange for promotions on the company’s website, show programs, and pre-show media, highlighting the deep connections that make this community so special.
Newtown Arts Company doesn’t just provide quality live theatre—it also offers valuable educational and volunteer opportunities to its community and beyond. The company runs educational programs for children aged 6-14, allowing them to explore all aspects of theatre, from play selection and set design to production and performance. High school students can also benefit from volunteer opportunities, earning the required service hours for graduation while gaining hands-on experience in theatre. Additionally, Newtown Arts Company supports young artists through scholarships for high school students pursuing higher education in music, theatre, or fine arts. Many scholarship recipients have gone on to successful careers in the arts and often return to share their knowledge and experiences with the next generation of performers and creators.
At its heart, Newtown Arts Company is more than just a theatre—it is a home, a family, and a source of inspiration for all who walk through its doors. It is a place where creativity is nurtured, friendships are formed, and lifelong memories are made. Whether onstage, backstage, or in the audience, everyone who becomes part of this community plays a role in something greater than themselves. The impact of Newtown Arts Company reaches far beyond the theatre, shaping lives, fostering dreams, and reminding us all of the power of storytelling, collaboration, and the arts.
