• Theater, as a major art form, encompasses expressions of the best that's in humankind.
  
• Theater has the potential to enrich, enliven, inspire, instruct and open minds and hearts to infinite possibilities.
  
• Theater is a communal activity, a team sport and can be satisfyingly collective.
  
• Theater is best made in a safe, supportive, collaborative atmosphere.
  
• There is inherent value for the theater artist in variety, controversy, challenge and change.
