How it works

The Haus of Ember is our inclusive theater collective. Cast and crew collaborate with teaching artists and community partners to create original and adapted productions. Roles span on-stage and behind-the-scenes so everyone can shine.

  • Acting, improv, voice, and movement
  • Tech theater: lights, sound, sets, projection
  • Costumes, props, makeup, and hair
  • Front-of-house: ticketing, ushering, concessions
  • Showcase events with options for stipends/revenue share

We plan seasons, hold inclusive auditions, and run weekly rehearsals and crew labs. Supports are embedded by DSPs and mentors; documentation aligns with ISP outcomes (communication, social participation, executive functioning, vocational exposure).
