“Theater is local. It can help a people shape its identity. If a theater is to be for a people, it must be of them. If it serves a community, it must be near that community.”
Todd London, An Ideal Theater: Founding Visions for a New American Art

“The theater as we know it—the noncommercial, non-Broadway theater—began as an immigrant theater. Its first impulse was to celebrate cultural distinctions while searching for a common tongue.”
Todd London, An Ideal Theater: Founding Visions for a New American Art

“The gifted amateur [has] possibilities which the professional may have lost.” —Susan Glaspell”
