About Us

For more than 25 years, Pandora Productions has been the only theatre company in the Louisville Metro area and most of Kentucky exclusively dedicated and most trusted to tell the stories of the LGBTQ+ communities.
Pandora Productions has been telling the stories of the LGBTQ+ community for over 25 years. Born from a small, crazy idea of three artists who wanted to create a musical based on the myth of Pandora, the company has grown to be a shining star in the Louisville arts firmament. Performing a 5 show mainstage season in the Henry Clay Theatre, the company presents bold, cutting edge, award winning musicals, dramas and comedies as well as hosted two national new play competitions. The company celebrates local, regional and national playwrights writing on LGBTQ+ themes with our PlayDates with Pandora series and brand new Intersections project.
LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Pandora Productions, performing at the Henry Clay Theatre, acknowledges that we are situ-
ated on the traditional land of the Adena, Hopewell, Miami, Osage, Shawnee and Cherokee
East people. We respect their enduring presence and historical stewardship of these lands.

Our Vision

Profound relatedness and belonging by and for our diverse human community.

Our Mission

Pandora Productions celebrates the transformational power of theatre and with curiosity, courage and conviction, we will:

  • Explore artistic expressions of the commonality and diversity of human experience within the spectrum of sexuality and gender identity;
  • Examine our shared connections and responsibilities as a society, building community by exposing the beauty and dignity of all people and
