INTAR PRODUCES AND LAUNCHES LATIN VOICES IN THEATER
Mission Statement
Committed to the development and continuation of the Latine voice in American theater and beyond, INTAR’s mission is to commission, develop, and produce bold, innovative, artistically significant live theater works generated by an intersectional array of Latine playwrights, composers, directors, choreographers, and visual artists. With its relentless work, INTAR not only assists early career U.S. Latine artists and administrators in obtaining their first professional theater credits, union memberships, and reviews in English language media, but also is an artistic home for mid-career and established artists who must continue to experiment, explore, and stretch themselves in their artistic work. INTAR serves as an intergenerational creative community that represents the vast diversity of the Latine experience.
