MISSION STATEMENT
Prism Stage Company seeks to engage audiences in works exploring what it is to be alive now by platforming playwrights, directors, and actors over 40, because “Talent has no expiration date.”
Where We Began
In 2010, director Benno Haenel and playwright Judith Estrine began a creative journey that culminated in the founding of Prism Stage Company three years later. The aim today is the same as it was then: to develop and produce new and overlooked plays by exciting playwrights over 40, performed by a majority of accomplished theater professionals primarily over 40, under the guidance of directors also over 40.
Partnership with CreateTheater
Since 2022, we have developed a partnership with CreateTheater/ETC. CreateTheater has been helping writers develop and produce their work since the company was launched in 2016 by Cate Cammarata, an Off-Broadway producer, director and dramaturg.
