Our mission is to create innovative theatre for the purpose of securing a new generation of theatre go-ers. As well as putting an emphasis on works that highlight the feminine perspective

The Strand Theater Company puts an emphasis on producing plays written by women and with roles for women. The New York State Council on the Arts conducted a study on women in theater and found that in 2002 only 17% of plays produced in America were by women. Women directors only represented 16%. This gives cause to the noticeable under representation of women roles in theater stage plays.

During our season of shows, we will strive to equal the playing field by producing at least half the season’s plays by women. We will also give an emphasis to plays with roles for women.
