How we got that (new) mission
In October 2024, after a year-long process, Flux revised our mission statement:
Flux Theatre Ensemble pollinates plays and culture to grow creative kinship. Against the dominance of exploitative systems, Flux advances collective care, long-term artistic collaboration, and shared power. Rooted in New York City theatre, we follow where our people lead: across distance, disciplines, and generations. Rising toward liberation, we create the worlds we need, an act of play at a time.
The revised mission emerged from sustained conversations about how Flux and the world have changed since we reached consensus on our last mission statement in 2010. It took rituals and story circles, Google Docs and chart paper, community conversations and collective prophecy. We hope you’ll join us celebrating and manifesting this new vision over our next decades together!
We created a series of images from past productions that embodied the new mission:
Flux’s mission from 2010-24:
Flux Theatre Ensemble produces transformative theatre that explores and awakens the capacity for change. As an ensemble-artist driven company, we believe that long-term collaboration and rigorous creative development can unite artists and audiences to build a creative home in New York.
