Pegasus Theatre NJ seeks to illuminate and elevate human experiences through courageous and imaginative theatrical storytelling.  We envision a vibrant community engaged in performance and education, where theatre artists and patrons, alike, are seen, heard, and valued. 

​

Pegasus Theatre NJ is guided in our work by these enduring values.

 

•  Diversity and Equity are Strengths

  • We are committed to sustaining a diverse, inclusive, and equitable space where everyone who enters our space— patrons, artists, employees, and volunteers—feels valued and respected regardless of age, race, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity.

  • We are strengthened by the diversity of human experiences, and how they come to the stage and change audiences.

  • Our work is stronger by the many voices, perspectives, and experiences we bring to the organization, both on and off stage.

  • The diverse and emerging voices of current and future theatre artists contribute to access and experience.

 

• Theatre is an Intimate Experience

  • Theatre transforms individuals, fosters understanding, and creates opportunity for courageous conversations.

  • Theatre empowers individuals through self-actualization, imagination, and empathy.

 

• Theatre Artists and Audiences are Seen and Heard

  • Theatre is a space where all people feel complete, heard, respected, understood, valued, and connected.

  • Artists’ work is valued and fairly compensated.

  • We have a responsibility to inspire, mentor, and train the theatre artists of the future.

 

• Artists Rise in Creative Playgrounds

  • The work on and off the stage is pursued with honesty, vulnerability, and authenticity.

  • Theatre is the practice of exploration and discovery, whether approaching a classic piece or a new work.
