TONYC’s mission is to partner with communities fighting against oppression to inspire transformative action through theatre. Our goals are to build community, solidarity, and awareness; to enable actors to become activists; and to influence policy-making through participatory theatre. Our work is guided by several core principles: that any discussion of a social problem should center the voices of those directly affected; that unscripted, live encounters have immense potential for transformative change; and that community-based art and activism can influence policy.
