The Coalescence Theatre Project, located in Central Illinois, exists to incite our community to thoughtful action. Our logo, an abstract representation of the genetic tree of life, reminds us that we all come from one common Ancestor. We focus on unheard stories and offer a place where the silent and the underrepresented have a voice. We aspire to be a home where play, discovery, and learning are celebrated and our audience reflects all of the people we serve. Coalescence Theatre Project is committed to new and established playwrights whose works represent our mission. Our commitment is to produce only plays by LGBTQIA+, BIPOC – the global majority, and women playwrights. Our mission is to utilize theatre to understand, acknowledge, and dismantle all forms of systemic oppression as we explore identity and our place in a global community.
