Founded in 2010, Burbage is a 501(c)3 nonprofit theatre organization based out of downtown Providence, RI.

Burbage was started by four actors who wanted to take the craft of acting out of the classroom and into their own hands. We believe that acting comes first. We believe the theatre's continued relevance as a civil institution is best perpetuated by building productions around the collaboration of an expert ensemble of storytellers.

We believe it is the actor's job to activate thought and inner movement in his audience.

In collaboration with Aurora, Burbage's theatrical residence in downtown Providence, Burbage produces innovative and spare, actor-centric and inherently theatrical plays that speak to the culturally rich and diverse artistic community of Providence RI. Burbage makes theatre accessible and affordable for a new generation of theatre-goer.
