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.
We endeavor to stand with the oppressed. We often fall short, but our faith compels us to continually strive to act more justly and love more fully. In that love, and in particular for our siblings of color, we stand. Black lives matter to God! Yes, Black lives matter.
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” – Matthew 5:9
"When the poor and needy seek water and there is none, I the LORD will hear them; I will open rivers in high places; I will plant in the wilderness...the Acacia...that they may see and know, and consider and understand that the hand of the LORD has done this."
Isaiah 41:17-20
