The Mission of the
Orlando GLBT Theatre Festival

We believe that theatre has the profound power to change lives and unify communities.

It is our mission to produce and present theatre that affirms and reflects the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender experience in order to enlighten empower and entertain.

To that end we strive to:

Discover, nurture, present and produce full-length plays, musicals, one-acts, monologues and one-person shows, cabarets and plays for young audiences reflective or out mission.

Support the creators of these plays, especially of new works, by providing an annual festival where their work can be experienced by the general public in readings, workshops and/or in preparation for future production.

Promote Orlando as one of the few cities to have such a festival and as a city where plays with GLBT themes are celebrated.

Expand the evolving cultural horizon of the city of Orlando.

Provide positive theatre experiences for young audiences and their families by presenting plays that entertain, enlighten, and foster tolerance and compassion.

Involve and employ as many individuals as possible through artistic, committee and volunteer positions.

GLBTFlag.jpg

The Rainbow Flag, created in 1978 for San Francisco's Gay Freedom Celebration by Gilbert Baker, depicts not the shape of the rainbow, but its colors in horizontal stripes. The Rainbow Flag has been adopted as the PRIDE flag. It represents the diversity yet unity of Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals and Trans universally.
