Out of Hand works at the intersection of art, social impact, and civic engagement. We help create a more just world through programs that combine theater and film with information and conversation.
Since 2001, Out of Hand has collaborated with dozens of local and national community partners to produce programs that combine art to open hearts, information to open minds, and conversation to inspire action. Our programs are based on addressing Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s triple evils of war, poverty, and racism.
Out of Hand Theater creates and produces original plays, performed in private homes, places of worship, community centers, and welcoming shared spaces. Our original works illuminate today’s most pressing social issues through powerful acting and storytelling.
At Out of Hand Dinners, a theatrical monologue or play sets the stage for a facilitated dialogue rooted in the values of equity and shared over a meal. Each year a new thematic Dinners series is produced using our award-winning Equitable Dinners model.
Out of Hand Impact partners with organizations, institutions, and communities to design and implement initiatives that address complex social challenges. These efforts draw on storytelling, engagement, and collaboration to produce lasting community impact.
