ABOUT US

WE DO EVERYTHING WITH A SPIRIT OF EXCELLENCE!!

 SoWright Theater Company, founded by Sabrina Wright, evolved from SoWright Productions, LLC (2009), and transitioned from a for-profit to a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit on February 7, 2023, focusing on arts education, impactful theater, social awareness, youth empowerment, and community engagement in Central Arkansas. 

ABOUT

SoWright Theater Company (SWT), an independent, 501(c)(3) nonprofit traveling theater organization dedicated to the creation, development, and presentation of original stage plays that reflect authentic stories, lived experiences, and culturally relevant themes.

KEY DISTINICTION:
SoWright does not license existing scripts — all productions are copy-righted original works, written and produced by the President and Founder, Sabrina Wright , or by local artist  exclusively through the company.

CORE FOCUS AREA

• Community-based storytelling
• Youth and adult theatrical education
• Workshops, readings, and staged productions
• Through our Artist Spotlight program, we assist local writers in transforming their literary works into compelling stageplays.
