More About The Musical Theatre Factory

The MTF is led by a passion to transform culture through serving and gathering an artistic community that makes art to make change. They create opportunities for musical theater makers who exist at the intersections of underrepresented groups while providing all-access programming for artists to collaborate and grow together. The organization has a philosophy and values that stem from concepts seeking to meet public needs in community and taking an active responsibility for an interrelationship grounded in the values of equity, pluralism, cooperation, and sustainability.

These values are the foundation of the MTF vision - accessible and brave creative spaces where all artists of all backgrounds at any stage of their career can be supported throughout their process. The MTF interrogates the traditional methods of access and representation and offers new means of storytelling with special attention paid to the narratives from marginalized and underrepresented communities. The intent of all MTF programming is to engage the audience, community, and field at large in the developmental process. Art is one major way to shift culture, and by supporting the work of artists who are creating work that serves that vision, MTF seeks, thereby, to challenge the field to be more inclusive and push the bounds of the artform. In so doing, MTF crafts every space that they hold as radical, intentional, rigorous, and inclusive, fostering collective support, feedback, growth, collaboration, and community that centers artmaking for change-making.
