Community Engagement/Access: Woolly Mammoth's nationally acclaimed Connectivity department was founded in 2009 to link its artistic mission to its social, civic and political one. It is integral to all of the theatre's work and enhances the total theatrical experience of Woolly Mammoth for all who encounter it. Connectivity represents the potential and ambition of Woolly Mammoth to be a place for people to come and engage with the most thought-provoking and challenging questions of our time. The work of Connectivity rests on four pillars: community engagement, audience engagement, audience development, and learning. Woolly Mammoth's core values of radical inclusion and anti-racism are at the center of this work.
New Play Development: Woolly Mammoth is committed to the development of new plays, with a unique process specifically designed to bring each project to fruition. This might include workshops, readings, research trip, or a combination thereof, depending on the needs of each play and creatives. A fully staffed artistic team including the artistic director, director of new work, acting company, and resident designers allows us to provide this flexible roster of support and to mobilize the trajectory of a project as appropriate.
