I just wanted to send a heartfelt thank you to each of you for the experience of working together at the 2025 Connecticut Theatre Exchange. It was such a joy—and a privilege—to collaborate with such a talented, generous, and kind-hearted group of artists.
CTX was a truly warm and welcoming environment, and I’m grateful to have been part of it. My only regret? That our time together was far too brief. But I have no doubt our paths will cross again—onstage, offstage, or somewhere in the liminal space between rehearsal and discovery.
Connecticut Theatre Exchange (CTX) exists to bring together theatre artists from various backgrounds and identities to support their process of developing new projects and new skills in a nurturing environment that is both accessible and affordable.
We do this by:
- Offering residencies for playwrights and screenwriters and their teams in various forms of development
- Providing low-cost residencies to existing ensembles to experience an uninterrupted and deeper developmental rehearsal process
- Giving space and time for professional artists to study new skills and new ideas, contributing to their artistic process
- Garnering resources for historically under-represented or under-supported populations and actively identifying ways to remove barriers to the CTX experience
- Welcoming the public to free showings of new work and inviting curated feedback
- Programming a variety of free or low-cost workshops of exploration of the artistic process
- Developing partnerships with organizations that promote equitable development of creative work
