Welcome to Alessandra Theatre Company

Where stories come alive and boundaries disappear.

At Alessandra Theatre Company, we believe theatre has the power to transform - not just the stage, but the hearts and minds of everyone who experiences it. We create bold, imaginative productions that blend the timeless beauty of classic works with the electric energy of contemporary performance.

Our stages are where fearless artists tell authentic stories, where diverse voices unite, and where every performance becomes a shared journey of discovery. From Shakespeare to cutting-edge new works, we're committed to theatre that doesn't just entertain - it engages, inspires, and challenges you to see the world through new eyes.

Whether you're a lifelong theatre enthusiast or just beginning to explore the magic of live performance, you'll find a home with us.

Join our community of storytellers, dreamers, and changemakers as we celebrate the art form that connects us all.

About Alessandra Theatre Company

Founded by Alessandra Raed, our company springs from a deep belief that theatre is humanity's most powerful form of storytelling - a living, breathing art form that transcends borders, languages, and cultures.

Alessandra brings over two decades of theatrical experience spanning three continents. As a playwright, director, drama educator, and actress, she has created and performed in works across Brazil and the United States, understanding first hand how theatre builds bridges between diverse communities.

Theatre, at its heart, is about connection. It's the ancient art of gathering in a shared space to witness stories that challenge, comfort, and inspire us. Whether we're breathing new life into classical masterpieces or championing bold contemporary voices, we honour theatre's unique ability to create empathy, spark conversation, and remind us of our shared humanity.

At Alessandra Theatre Company, we don't just produce shows - we cultivate experiences that linger long after the curtain falls, fostering a community where authentic storytelling thrives.
