Everyone Gets In
Radical Neighboring. It's our thing.
At Theater Alliance, Radical Neighboring is a commitment: every performance offers Name Your Own Price tickets, because the cost of admission should never decide who gets to sit in the room. This promise is rooted in place—in Southeast DC, in Ward 8, in the neighbors who’ve watched this company build relationships long before it built a permanent home. Radical Neighboring means outreach that actually reaches; it means partnerships with schools and community organizations that outlast any single season; it means access as the foundation the work stands on. Theater, done right, belongs to everyone in proximity to it. We intend to keep it that way.
Pay What You Want
Pay What you Want is our $10-or-more flex price for Seniors, Students, Military, or anyone who wants to pay for a ticket and stay within their budget. Available online or at the door.
Radical Neighboring
We believe in welcoming everyone to our events. If $1 is what you can afford, come to the door and get a ticket to a radically amazing show.

Use Our Space.
This space was built to be shared. Theater Alliance is a resident company here, but residency was never the whole plan; we're stewards of a hub meant for the wider arts community: for the choreographer who needs a rehearsal room, the filmmaker looking for a screening space, the young dance company that's outgrown their basement space. Solidarity economics means something concrete to us: shared resources, flexible terms, a building that earns its keep by being useful to more people than just us. If you've got an event, a rehearsal process, a screening, a community gathering that needs a home, we'd like to hear about it. Reach out to Samba Pathak — we're neighbors to the arts community too, and we mean that as an open door, not a slogan.
