WE BELIEVE

The Renaissance was a grand revolution in thinking, a new awareness of the individual's potential as a reasoning, creative, and possible heroic being. It is a process of mind expansion that grew out of medieval times and has continued right up to the present day. The Renaissance part of our lives -in many ways, still colors our behavior and our judgment. 
The Renaissance intercedes how we present theatre even now in the 21st century. 

There can be no great accomplishment without risk. Without risk, there can be no growth.
