About us

TheatreSquared’s locally produced and nationally acclaimed productions reach more than 65,000 patrons each year. The company is Northwest Arkansas’s year-round professional resident theatre, offering a unique audience experience in an intimate setting. In 2011, TheatreSquared was recognized by the American Theatre Wing, founder of the Tony Awards, as one of the nation’s ten most promising emerging theatres. TheatreSquared’s audience includes tens of thousands of students and their teachers. The theatre partners with schools from Northwest Arkansas to the Delta Region, working to give students across Arkansas access to live performances and arts-based learning tools. A professional company, TheatreSquared employs trained artists from across the country to create its 320 annual performances and is contracted with Actors' Equity Association. The theatre is also Arkansas’s home for professional playwrights, developing scripts through the Arkansas New Play Festival and producing new works and world premieres each year. TheatreSquared recently completed a new, architecturally significant, permanent home for professional theatre in Northwest Arkansas. This 50,000 square-foot cultural landmark unites two intimate theatres, rehearsal space, a three-level commons and café, outdoor gathering spaces, production workshops, offices, and artists’ apartments. Campaign efforts are in their closing phase — learn more at ournextstage.org. Since its founding 2005, TheatreSquared’s work has remained rooted in its founding vision, that “theatre—done well and with passion—can transform lives and communities.”

We’re THRILLED to announce the co-chairs for this year’s Gala for Education and Access: Maria and Joseph Godsey. “We’re excited for this year’s Gala for Education and Access and the opportunity it creates for raising tomorrow’s future performers and theater lovers,” said the couple. “We’ve found the performing arts and TheatreSquared so powerful in the impact it’s had on our family - the conversations it’s generated, the emotions we’ve experienced, and the memories we’ve created. Join us for this Gala to help every child experience the beauty, magic and power of the performing arts.” About the Godseys: Joseph Godsey is the senior vice president and chief supply chain officer at Sam’s Club, responsible for getting the right products to members and clubs when they expect them. He is active outdoor enthusiast, regeneration advocate and coach of his kid’s recreational soccer teams. Maria Godsey is a REALTOR® with Keller Williams, an author, and an active volunteer. She is not just passionate about real estate but also about fostering a sustainable future and encouraging others to make a positive impact on the world and people around them.
