The Artistic Home was founded in 1998, under the leadership of Artistic Director Kathy Scambiatterra, with the belief that the actor is the heart of great theater. It is the actor who moves the audience, brings a story to life, and - with the audience - creates the revelatory, truthful moments that great theater provides.

We perform a diverse range of high-quality classic and newer works that have been well-received by both the general public and theater community. Their chief common denominator is great writing involving rich, complex character relationships. They present formidable challenges for actors and audiences, relying on sharp ensemble work.

The Artistic Home is an acting ensemble and studio. Through classes, workshopping theatre pieces, film projects and full stage productions, we proudly provide a space and working environment for 20 Ensemble Members and 8 Artistic Associates -- as well as untold numbers of acting and directing students, designers, technicians and teachers -- to produce work and strengthen their artistic voice.
