About the Deep Dish Theater CompanyThe Deep Dish Theater Company is committed to the presentation of compelling, provocative, human-centered dramatic work in an intimate setting. We develop that work through the collaboration of artists, striving always to create productions that cannot be contained within a single imagination. We celebrate the communal nature of creating and experiencing a theatrical work, and we are determined to include and reach out to the surrounding community in all its diversity. Since its inception, the Deep Dish Theater Company has produced in Chapel Hill’s University Mall. Our presentations aim to challenge theatergoers, to explore issues and concerns of our community and the world-at-large, and to introduce new and rarely seen plays to our audience. Our current location in University Mall is evidence of our intention to reach across demographic borders to impact and educate the community as a whole; it does not indicate that our productions will be of a solely commercial nature, as our choices so far amply prove. We currently produce four shows a year in our space at the University Mall, supplemented by special events like our annual “Cancer Chronicles” presentation marking National Cancer Survivors Day. In our second season we inaugurated the Deep Dish Book Club, in which we read and discuss a book related thematically to the production at hand. We also follow two performances per production with discussions featuring actors, production personnel, and a scholar or expert in a field related to the play’s subject matter. We are currently developing an Arts in Education program in conjunction with local educators, and have joined with Arts Access to make our productions accessible to new audiences. And we regularly offer acting and playwriting classes for those anxious to further explore the theatrical experience. We are very proud of the accomplishments to date of the Deep Dish Theater Company, and look forward to contributing to the cultural richness of the Triangle for many years to come.
