Growth
Compassion
Understanding

We fill the void in the professional theater community in Clark County by collaborating with youth programs and local community theaters to develop our local theatre scene. That collaboration elevates what each of us brings to the table.

Our philosophy is that by providing a hearth near which we can all gather and take turns hearing and telling a diversity of stories, we hope to bridge that divide and create a sense of identity we can all be proud of.

All voices deserve an opportunity to be heard. Through our own productions, and in collaboration with other theater groups in the area, we are a culture of the arts that speaks to our neighbors, allowing us to approach difficult topics as a community, and share insights from all perspectives.


Emberside Theater strives to become a common gathering place for collective storytelling that fosters growth, compassion, and understanding in the SW Washington community.

We are made up of local professionals who have produced theater in the area for over a decade. From staged readings of existing and new works, collaboration with local theater groups, and full blown musical theater productions, we plan to elevate all theater in the SW Washington community. Our goal is to develop a professional theater presence in Clark County that helps to grow the arts and culture in Southwest Washington.
