Phoenix Theatre (Indianapolis)
The Phoenix Theatre is Indiana's only professional contemporary theatre, and has presented productions to challenge and entertain the Indianapolis community since 1983. An Equity house, the Phoenix presents the Midwest and Indiana premieres of many popular Broadway and Off-Broadway plays, and has presented 94 World Premieres (through the end of the 2014-15 season). The Phoenix operates the 130-seat proscenium Livia and Steve Russell Stage as well as the 75-seat cabaret-style Frank and Katrina Basile Stage at 749 N. Park Avenue near Massachusetts Avenue. It was founded by Bryan D. Fonseca in 1983, initially to perform the three-part (three evening) science fiction play, ''Warp!''. Both venues are housed along with administrative offices in a renovated 1907 church where Jim Jones once preached, a fact that was brought into their production of ''Hedwig and the Angry Inch''. The Phoenix Theatre is a member of the National New Play Network and the League of Indianapolis Theatres, and is supported by the Indiana Arts Commission, the Arts Council of Indianapolis, and the National Endowment for the Arts, as well as local corporate and foundation funders and more than 400 individual donors.
==Mission and Vision==
The leadership of the Indianapolis-based Phoenix Theatre believes that Indianapolis deserves to be emotionally and intellectually engaged in works that contribute to or comment on the national dialogue, that a diversity of voices and viewpoints is vital to the well-being of the city and all who enter the Phoenix Theatre, and that the welcoming, intimate space provides a safe place where risks can be taken and transformative conversations created. The Phoenix is committed to producing only contemporary theatre, so that through their productions they are inviting a dialogue on current affairs to Indianapolis and are helping to create a more enlightened, aware local community.
The Phoenix produces ten shows every season, including multiple World and/or Regional Premieres, with all of their shows being Indiana Premieres. They mostly produce plays written within the previous five years, and rarely produce shows more than one time (exceptions are ''Avenue Q'' and ''The Zippers of Zoomerville''). Fare at the Phoenix is always issue-oriented, hoping to incite conversation along with the entertainment. They have often featured plays dealing with sexuality, homosexuality, women's issues, AIDS, African-American issues (they have done all of August Wilson's plays as they became available for regional theatre use), abuse, and mental disorders. The Phoenix is committed to hiring local artists, and almost all of their talent pool of designers and actors comes from Indianapolis or nearby cities.
