The Mission

The central subject matter in our work is the theme of identity and social responsibility.

We are The Back Porch Players, a Houston-based theatre troupe devoted to the idea that theater is a powerful teaching tool that has the ability to inspire change in the individual as well as the community.

At the root of our mission, we believe theatre should be a place of expression for everyone involved. So, we feel it essential to have a couple talk-backs with the audience to discuss the play's themes, each actor's thoughts, the process, and most importantly the reactions and questions from the audience about the production. We want to create an environment, not just for us as artists, but for the public to share and contribute ideas.

Resident artistic and company members include Dan Gordon, Matt Hune, Morgan Rosse, Nick Collins, and Troy Scheid.

We at Back Porch are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
