Our Mission
Peacedale Global Arts seeks to foster the global exchange of ideas to deepen understanding across cultures, explore differing modes of artistic expression through theater, and support artists and stories that speak to our diverse and interconnected world.
Our Work
We support the creative growth of artists based in the U.S. and abroad by offering international relationship-building opportunities as well as generative writing workshops, script development, translation workshops, and residency programs to develop new theatrical work. We collaborate with global partners who are actively involved in intercultural dialogue through theater and community engagement.
Our Values
Creativity & Curiosity. Connection & Collaboration. Diversity & Discovery.
Artists possess the power to speak authentically to the enormous changes taking place in the world today and offer ways to imagine our collective future. Theater, by its very nature of intimacy, immediacy, and openness, cultivates a space where shared stories can bring people together. It is here that thoughtful exchange, guided by respect and curiosity, can thrive. These encounters create the conditions for transformative change for those in the room and have the power to reverberate out to impact both local and global communities through the art.
Meaningful exchange across cultures broadens our capacity to understand each other and celebrate our shared humanity in all its complexity. Diversity of identity, experience, thought, ability, culture, and artistic expression strengthens our communities. Seeking out and including a multiplicity of voices in storytelling, particularly those voices who have been excluded, is essential. We believe sharing different creative practices, perspectives, and personal experiences can spark extraordinary innovation, imagination, risk-taking, and artistry. The process of discovery is ever-present in this rigorous and joyful work: in the art-making, in the relationship-building, and in the self-reflection.
