Mirror Stage

Mirror Stage is a nonprofit, multidisciplinary arts organization that believes the power of storytelling holds the key to bringing people together in imagining and embodying a better future. We reflect the diversity of our community in high-quality, professional programs and events that play it smart without playing it safe. Mirror Stage nurtures unique artistic voices, centering those who have been most marginalized by society’s inequitable systems and structures. With the goal of increasing empathy and social justice, Mirror Stage connects people more deeply to perspectives and experiences other than their own, while amplifying historically excluded stories, voices, and faces—bringing us to a place of common understanding. Mirror Stage gets people talking, as well as thinking. Values • Challenge: We focus on thought-provoking, relevant, progressive, risky, and inspiring work—encouraging people to examine their responses more intentionally. • Integrity: We practice the highest standards of excellence and ethics in all interactions. We are committed to embracing the full range of human experience at all levels: in our programs, in our audience, on our staff, and within our leadership. • Partnership: We collaborate with artists, audience and community members to find the best path forward and create positive change. • Respect: We cultivate and nurture an atmosphere of respect and inclusivity, welcoming differing strengths, skill sets, cultures, and abilities.
