At Axial Theater, a nonprofit now in its 24th season, we create bold, thought-provoking productions that invite audiences to confront their own assumptions and biases. We are committed to supporting the professional growth of playwrights and actors through staged workshops, development readings, and full productions. Join us as we explore the transformative power of theater and its ability to spark conversation, empathy, and change.
Axial Theatre is a Grant Award Winner! Thank you ArtsWestchester for selecting us for the 2026 Matching Grant!
