About Us:
The Company was created in 1993 by Ken Bradley, Cathy Grant and Damian Gillen. The goal: to produce the original play scripts that were eventually made into feature films and major motion pictures. We present live theatre as a viable alternative to a night watching television or going to the movies. The reason: to get the couch potato off the sofa and into the theatre.
In 2002, Artistic Director Damian Gillen toured throughout Texas with our production of a one-man A Christmas Carol called "Bah Humbug!" With this production we broadened the artistic focus of The Company Theatre and began our Educational Outreach Program, bringing inspirational adaptations of classic literature as live stageplays, touring to schools, churches and theatres all over Texas. Bah Humbug alone has been seen by over 25,000 people in the first five years.
In 2007, The Company teamed up with Ruben's Cafe' providing affordable dinner theatre in an intimate setting at an affordable price (The Dinnerbox Series.) The Company Theatre brings live theatre to you! To your restaurant, your church, even into your home! We produce family-friendly productions in unique venues, not just in a theater setting. These are Special Events, not just "plays." We have performed in such uniques venues as movie theaters, Prison Ministries, many Church Fundraisers, schools, gymnasiums, gazebo's, back yards, a barn and dinner-theatres all across Texas...yes, we perform "Charlottes Web" every year on a real working farm!
What we have with The Company is a critically-acclaimed and audience-tested production company for many years. We have talented actors and technical staff dedicating their time, talents and efforts into high quality productions.
