Steep Theatre Company was founded in 2000 by three actors with little more than a shoestring budget and a desire to work in an open, ensemble atmosphere.  Over the years, the company has become a dedicated, close-knit group of thirty-one actors, directors, designers, and writers driven by a shared commitment to the organization’s mission:  

To bring out the everyday truths in the stories we tell through ensemble work and to reach out to non-traditional theatregoers by seeking out stories and creating experiences relevant to them.

Steep believes theatre should stoke conversations about the issues and conditions that are a part of all of our lives; conversations that take place between artists and audiences in the theatre, in the lobby, or long after everyone has gone home.  But Steep’s goal is more than just sparking these conversations.  The organization’s goal is to add more voices and perspectives to these conversations.  Steep strives to reach the everyday person who may have abandoned theatre as a relevant art form by telling stories that touch their lives in real and palpable ways and by creating an environment that is welcoming to everyone.  By bringing these voices back to the theatre, Steep hopes to reinvigorate conversations and ensure that theatre is a viable, vital, and productive art form.
