Physical Plant Theater is a non-profit arts organization located in Austin, Texas dedicated to the proposition that theater must be free or inexpensive to attend and accessible to all. We work strenuously to reach diverse and under-served audiences for whom high ticket prices function as barriers to access. We rely substantially on private and public funding to maintain inexpensive tickets while continuing to produce new and original work whose precision, elegance, and artistry coax audiences into unforgettable worlds of mystery and provocation.

• To be generous and hospitable.
  Our company is diverse and welcoming. Our shows are always inexpensive or free and accessible to every person. You will be welcomed into the venue & into the play itself.
• To support and breed unfamiliarity.
  Within each production, we invite you into a world that is new and unfamiliar—new in its voice, new in its language of symbols, new in its structure and scope.
• To envelop and empower.
  We believe life is potentially as pliable, as ripe, and as full of secrets as are the worlds we make in our plays. We expect our search for creative meaning to improve the world.
• To take our time.
  Quality won’t be rushed. From conception to workshops to rehearsals, we’ll take as long as necessary to perfect our work.
