Mission & Vision
Our Mission
Steppenwolf Theatre Company strives to create thrilling, courageous and provocative art in a thoughtful and inclusive environment.
We succeed when we disrupt your routine with experiences that spark curiosity, empathy and joy.
We invite you to join our ensemble as we navigate, together, our complex world.
Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Access (IDEA)
Steppenwolf Theatre Company is committed to creating an organization that deeply values and draws strength from the many and varied stories and storytellers that make up our society. We will work to create a community that at its core is rooted in inclusion, diversity, equity and access.
Our Programming
Steppenwolf produces and presents year-round programming that engages our multi-generational audience with thought-provoking plays and artistic experiences. Steppenwolf also strives to develop new plays, new audiences and new artists for the future of American theatre.
Steppenwolf's artistic programming includes a Membership series; Presentations of Visiting Artists; and LookOut, a multidisciplinary performance series.
Outreach & Education
At Steppenwolf, we believe it is important "to share something personal, authentic and pragmatic" about our values and methods. By accomplishing this, we not only contribute something of value to the world but, in turn, provide nourishment for our own growth as artists and arts administrators.
