Acacia Theatre Company is an independent, non-profit, interdenominational Christian theatre company. It was founded in 1980 by several theatre artists who shared the common desire to integrate art and faith by presenting theatre that would express the experiences and positive values important to members of the Christian faith.
Through uplifting, quality entertainment, Acacia provides occasion for thanksgiving, growth and enjoyment, and the opportunity for Christians and non- Christians to consider their lives in relation to God.

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” – Matthew 5:9

Isaiah 41:17-20
