Mission
THE JUNGLE'S MISSION IS TO CREATE COURAGEOUS, RESONANT THEATER THAT CHALLENGES, ENTERTAINS, AND SPARKS EXPANSIVE CONVERSATION. THE JUNGLE'S VISION IS TO BE A NEIGHBORHOOD THEATER WITH NATIONAL IMPACT, INDISPENSABLE TO OUR COMMUNITY AND ASPIRATIONAL TO THE FIELD. FOUNDED IN 1991, THE JUNGLE DEMONSTRATES HOW THE ARTS CAN BE A CATALYST FOR NEIGHBORHOOD REVITALIZATION, WITH A STRONG HISTORY OF BUSINESS PARTNERSHIPS. IN 1999 THE THEATER MOVED INTO ITS PERMANENT HOME, AN INTIMATE 152-SEAT SPACE ACROSS THE INTERSECTION FROM ITS ORIGINAL LOCATION. ALONG WITH ITS REPUTATION FOR ARTISTIC EXCELLENCE, THE JUNGLE IS PRIZED BY ARTISTS FOR SUPPORTING THEIR DEVELOPMENT AND PROVIDING ACCESS TO CAREER-DEFINING OPPORTUNITIES.
