The Geffen Playhouse is a non-profit organization dedicated to enriching the cultural life of Los Angeles through plays and educational programs that inform, entertain and inspire. Education and community engagement are at the heart and soul of the art we create, share and inspire with here at the Geffen Playhouse.

We believe in the following core values:

• Theater arts opens doors to creative exploration and personal discoveries and should be experienced and shared with as many people as possible.

• Theater is a one-of-a-kind tool for learning, connecting, and profoundly enriching the lives of people of all ages.

• Theater arts can ignite positive change within schools and communities.

• Theater creates educational transformations for students both inside and outside of the classroom.

• Access to well-designed theater arts experiences can develop life-long appreciation and advocacy for theater in schools, organizations, and communities.
