Theatre Exile

MISSION

Theatre Exile is a nonprofit theater company committed to sparking dialogue that strengthens our community through the development and staging of timely and provocative plays. Our productions explore the complexities of the human condition with a sense of Philadelphia grit and passion. We strive to raise the social well-being of our community by creating a supportive and creative environment where artists, audiences, and our entire community can experiment, grow, and find their voices.

Theatre Exile has proven to be a place where local artists can take their biggest risks. We match challenging scripts with Philadelphia’s top talent, continually bringing immediate and dangerous performances to our audiences. The stories that Exile brings to our audiences demand that our actors live in a moment of truth, despite the peril and vulnerability that such honesty demands. Our artists and technicians collaborate continually. This working style is imperative to creating the intimacy that the audience feels. Armed with our bare-knuckled acting style, bold designs and forceful direction, Exile attacks stories; digging deeper into our desires and psyches.
