About Us

Harold Green Jewish Theatre's Mandate

At the Harold Green Jewish Theatre Company we embrace and celebrate the Jewish story – stories about our history, stories about our beliefs, stories about our struggles and triumphs.

These stories have been 5,000 years in the making; they have universal application. These stories have to be told and need to be seen.

It is our responsibility and privilege to share them with the world.

Harold Green Jewish Theatre's Vision Statement

Harold Green Jewish Theatre's founding vision statement is to illuminate humanity through a Jewish perspective, by inviting artists and audiences to participate in live theatre, the meeting place of all the arts.

Theatre holds up a mirror to our lives and stimulates us to see the world in new ways. We want our plays, of Jewish themes, to delight and enlighten, to inspire and stir and to open hearts to humanity. We tell stories to reveal truths, through a Jewish perspective, that deserve to be heard over and over again.

We welcome experienced artists and nurture emerging professionals to explore and express their creativity, talent and imagination. Our pride in our craft sets the bar higher with each successive production.

We welcome our diverse audiences as we would friends into our homes. In this electronic age of increasing social isolation, each performance brings together artists and audiences for a unique Jewish encounter.

Each live performance is a once-in-a-lifetime event.

We want to produce for each person on both sides of the stage, such moments and memories as those that sparked and sustain our passion for the theatre.
