More stories deserve a place on stage.

We believe theatre has the power to help us see the world through someone else’s eyes to build understanding, foster empathy, celebrate diverse experiences, and create meaningful connections within our community.

Stage4All is part of Pentacle Theatre’s effort to create more opportunities for stories from people who have historically been underrepresented or pushed to the margins to be heard and celebrated.

A stronger stage can help build a stronger community.

Creating more opportunities for the stories of people who have historically been underrepresented or pushed to the margins to be heard and celebrated can help enrich the performing arts in the Salem area and contribute to a more inclusive and empathetic community.

Together, we can create a lasting legacy where more voices are heard, more stories are celebrated, and there is a place for everyone on the stage and in the audience.
