About Us
WE DEVELOP INNOVATION
The Exchange is a small organization with a huge footprint.
A performing arts organization that brings artists and audiences together to the form and empower new and bold storytellers, the Exchange is at the forefront of supporting the next generation of the dramatic form.
Though it is actually one of the oldest, The Exchange is a new kind of theatre company.
It is committed to creating the classics of the future by supporting the best working theatre artists today.
Productions range from reinterpretations of classic texts to new commissions, constantly exploring and pushing how new theatre is made to suit our contemporary times.
Through its development center, the Orchard Project, the Exchange serves a unique function in American theatre as the only theatre company in the country to support the work of other innovative companies and artists. Through the Orchard Project and other development initiatives, the Exchange redefines the way new theatre is made in the United States. Key to this push is seeking interactive ways to engage both audiences and artists in dynamic exchange of ideas and artistic vision. To that end, The Exchange hopes to embody its name in its actions.
