Mixed Blood uses theater to disrupt injustice.
Through theater, we connect people and organizations to advance dialogue on an issue, inspiring civic discourse and a sustained call to action.
Radical hospitality is core to all Mixed Blood does. It insists on eliminating barriers to participation in any of our plays or events. While free admission is its most trumpeted pillar, radical hospitality is much more than that; it’s about being a truly inviting, welcoming and affirming place for all people.
Coming Up
SCRIPT CLUB
For 45 years, social justice and new works have been at the heart of Mixed Blood’s mainstage programming. To continue that work we’ve organized the Mixed Blood Script Club. This FREE virtual discussion is held monthly as scripts are emailed to interested participants prior to the discussion for script reading and and personal analysis. All discussions will be moderated by facilitators who will lead conversations centering history of the script, themes of the play, opportunities for further script development and viewpoints of the play being produced in a future season at Mixed Blood Theatre.
Script Club occurs monthly on the third Wednesday at 7pm.
For more information on our upcoming Script Club discussion of Jackie Sibblies Drury’s “Fairview” moderated by Woolly Mammoth Theatre Artistic Director Maria Manuela Goyanes check out our events calendar.

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL HOME…MAYBE
Over the past year, Mixed Blood resident artist Mark Valdez has convened artists, developers, policymakers, and housing advocates from across the country for workshops and organizing events, using art to instill imagination into the possibilities for policy. After its Twin Cities run, the resulting production will travel to Los Angeles; Washington, DC; and Syracuse, NY, with organizing events happening concurrently in all locations.
