Welcome to Lookingglass!
Lookingglass Theatre Company redefines the limits of theatrical experience. Our goal is to fire the imagination with love, to celebrate the human capacity to taste and smell, weep and laugh, create and destroy, and wake up where we first fell – changed, charged, and empowered.

WATCH NOWWe are each other’s harvest;
we are each other’s business;
we are each other’s magnitude and bond.
– Gwendolyn Brooks
We at Lookingglass believe that our work and our lives are infinitely more complex, rewarding, illuminating, and nearer to truth when we have a wider variety of human experiences in the room, at the table, and on our stage.
Every day brings opportunity for growth and understanding, and we embrace it. Our developing AEI statement can be found here in its current form.
