MISSION

Six Figures is a not-for-profit theatre company that was founded in 1990 by six women who found that their experiences and sensibilities were underrepresented in the canon of commercial theatre, and committed themselves to developing plays and supporting voices that might not otherwise be heard.

Now in our 14th Season, we are dedicated to providing opportunities for women theater artists, developing quality theatrical work by women and other underrepresented artists, and ensuring that the community as a whole is aware of the opportunity to hear these new voices and see exciting, original performances. In 1999, the company became a part of the West End Theatre Consortium where it continues to make its artistic home.
