The Workhouse Theatre's mission is to provide the residents of the Camden neighborhoods with an opportunity to attend and to participate in quality presentations of theatrical works.

WTC will accomplish its mission by:

* Producing a broad range of theatrical presentations of the highest possible quality.

* Providing hands-on learning experiences in all aspects of theatre production and management.

* Promoting the artistic, creative and civic qualities of the Camden neighborhoods .

Respecting the community in which it resides, WTC will be mindful of the standards of its audience and the Camden community.

At Workhouse Theatre Company we believe:

Theatre arts can be accessible to everyone. We work to shatter the myth that an evening of theatre must cost a days wage, and we find ways to make the abstract ideas of many plays a reality for the people. Theatre does not need to be obtuse or expensive to be good.

Lack of a degree in theatre does not mean that you have no right to partake in the creation of theatre. We find ways to bring every interested person into the Workhouse and capitalize on their inherent skills and abilities. We pair the theatre newcomer with a theatre veteran in a mentoring relationship and we challenge participants to reach outside their comfort zone.

Theatre can be transformative in nature. We look at the Camden community, we look at the Camden residents, and we look at all people as the beginning of a transformation through theatre.

Respecting the community in which it resides, CCT will be mindful of the standards of its audience and the surrounding community

We offer theatre classes and seasonal performances.
