Compass Rose Theater is a non-profit professional teaching theater company that offers classes and workshops to students of all ages and keeps its teaching mission at the core of all its work. Its approach to theater education is process-based, meaning that any performance results from hard work and in-depth study of technique, and it does not seek to present a polished product until the basics of theater knowledge have been learned. Students work alongside professional artists and are fully compensated as with the other actors. All of the Compass Rose Theater faculty are teaching artists with a minimum of a Bachelor’s Degree in theater from an accredited institution, and some faculty have Master’s Degrees in theater. All faculty have teaching experience with a range of student populations and a depth of knowledge of how to challenge and stimulate the creative process within students individually and as an acting ensemble. Compass Rose Theater was founded in the spring of 2011 by Lucinda Merry-Browne. The theater states that it believes inclusion enriches creativity and broadens the world of those involved, and that it is devoted to producing plays of superb quality and richness by hiring accomplished professional artists as well as talented students for its productions.
