As you walk into The Rogue Theatre, giant puppets and painted Renaissance tapestries greet you. Fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies fill the snack bar. Live musicians play on the stage. An enthusiastic crowd gathers on the colorful Mexican tile in the historic lobby. When Joe McGrath and Cindy Meier began The Rogue Theatre in 2005, they decided they wanted to spend the rest of their lives with the world’s greatest authors. They wanted to produce theatre that was beautiful and profound. And they wanted to find a group of people, an audience, who longed to share challenging and meaningful stories about the human experience.
SIXTEEN YEARS LATER, THE ROGUE THEATRE IS STILL GOING STRONG.
The Rogue Theatre is an intimate 170-seat Small Professional Theatre in the heart of Tucson at The Historic Y, with an adjacent parking lot. The Rogue employs Tucson actors, directors and designers in a five-play season, with post-show discussions after every performance. In 2012 The Rogue won the American Theatre Wing (founder of the Tony Awards) National Theatre Award.
