Grassroots Theatre

Grassroots Theatre refers to community-based theatrical productions that are often created and performed by local residents or small groups with minimal external funding or infrastructure. It emphasizes local stories, cultural expression, and community involvement rather than commercial appeal. This approach fosters engagement, empowers communities, and provides a platform for underrepresented voices. Grassroots theatre is typically flexible, accessible, and rooted in the specific social or cultural context of its community, aiming to promote social change, preserve local traditions, and strengthen communal bonds through the art of performance.
