OUR MISSION: Spectrum Theatre Ensemble evolves the awareness, resources, and professionals that empower our neurodiverse community in achieving equal opportunity and full participation in society. OUR HISTORY: Spectrum Theatre Ensemble (STE) is a company of neurodiverse theatre artists, based in Providence, RI. STE was developed with the aid of a grant awarded to our Artistic Director Clay B. Martin, in partnership with Trinity Rep, entitled the Leadership U[niversity] One-on-One Mentorship Grant. The grant was administered by Theatre Communications Group (TCG) with support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. STE was founded in 2017 by a group of Neurodiverse theatre artists with the common belief that theatre provides a unique, collaborative venue for the understanding and inclusion of all, and that our society and culture is stronger for it. We produce relevant and high-quality productions. We also provide leading initiatives and sensory-friendly consulting with other organizations within the theatre industry and beyond. STE engages artists and audiences in developing social skills, empath, and self-determination.
