The Theatre School Values

Education

We advance intellectual development and ethical consciousness. We foster moral, spiritual, social, political, and artistic growth. We promote participation in civic life.

Respect

We inspire respect for self, for others, for the profession, and for humanity. We embrace the Vincentian model of service.

Freedom

We build a community founded on the principles of creativity and freedom of expression. We value initiative, innovation, exploration, and risk taking.

Imagination

We celebrate the primacy of the imagination in our work.

Spirituality

We believe theatre is a place for reflection, awakening, and the development of moral awareness.
