Hyde Park Theatre

Hyde Park Theatre develops writers, designers, directors, and actors from within the Austin community, while at the same time producing works by exciting new and established voices of the alternative theatre scene. We will work with a broad and diverse base of local artists to produce theater that confronts, challenges, and entertains. We have a strong commitment to paying local writers, actors, and designers a decent wage for their work, and to expanding the base of working artists in Austin. We hope to diversify and expand the audience for theater in Austin, making theater accessible and essential across lines of income, class, race, gender, and sexual identity. "The single most effective stage institution in Austin." Michael Meigs, Central Texas Live Theatre "Ken Webster revels in Hyde Park's smallness, for it affords him the creative freedom to stage works of the highest literary merit. As a theater director - and as an actor and director, too - Webster leads with language.
