ABOUT DOORSTEP THEATRE PROJECT
The Doorstep Theatre Project is a site specific, immersive, theatre company for young audiences, committed to creating innovative theatrical experiences that explore audience engagement. We aim to cultivate an environment for agency of the imagination that gives the audience a vehicle for impulse, immersion, and community. Our collective is comprised of queer, nonbinary, neurodiverse, and POC artists. Diversity is woven into the fabric of our collaboration. Crucially, the notion of inclusivity is central to the stories we tell, and how we tell them.
