Mission
Decidedly off the beaten path, Stray Cat is indie theatre at its best: quirky, edgy and irreverent. Stray Cat Theatre scratches the Valley's itch for a visceral, provocative theatre experience for culture-savvy cats who crave something beyond the standard kitty chow. Founded in 2002, Stray Cat is considered the Valley's leading alternative theatre. Stray Cat's stage productions are distinct from those of other theatre companies across the Valley. Consistent with our mission, Stray Cat is committed to: 1. Aggressively seeking out and showcasing the most vital contemporary material. 2. Cultivating the next generation of theatre artists in the Valley. 3. Constantly exploring theatrical possibility -- what the live theatre is uniquely capable of. 4. Striving to produce or develop original, unpublished work. 5. Fostering a creative incubator -- a free-radical environment dedicated to risk-taking where artists can find a home to do consistently fascinating things.
