Our Mission
The word, Filigree, meaning, 'the complex intertwining of delicate threads of gold and silver’, comes from the Latin words filum 'thread' and granum ‘seed’. ​

The Filigree Theatre embraces the dual roots of the word Filigree in our company's mission: with an aim to serve both as a Thread by connecting Austin to theatre communities in New York & Los Angeles and as a Seed by incubating, supporting and celebrating emerging theatre artists in Austin. We are likewise committed to forging connections with diverse audiences across Austin.

As a verb, To Filigree means ‘to make by hand and with much skill.’
We are committed to producing high-level, professional theatre whilst collaborating with local Austin artists working in other disciplines such as fine arts, dance, film and music.

Connecting to our past; planting the seeds of the future:
Our annual season is structured to connect the Past, Present and Future of theatre through a shared theme that runs throughout the season, comprised of:

FALL (Past)
A play that is from the theatre cannon

WINTER (Present)
A play that is the work of a playwright living/working today

SPRING (Future)
​A play that is new work/world premiere
