In the wake of the devastating events at Silver Rail Elementary, our community needs care, connection, and moments of joy.

At Ellipse Theatre Community, we believe theatre can’t heal everything, but sharing a laugh and coming together can be a small step toward healing.

We’re offering a FREE STREAM of our production of Oscar Wilde’s hilarious comedy "The Importance of Being Earnest" as a gift to our community and a little light when we need it most.

Please share with your friends and family and help us spread a little joy.

Schools should be safe places where young minds grow, hearts open, and dreams take shape.

In 2022, Ellipse Theatre Community had the privilege of hosting a workshop at Silver Rail Elementary, sharing the joy of theatre and creating space for students to explore artistic expression, creativity, and new possibilities.

As we grieve today’s devastating school shooting, our hearts are with the students, families, educators, and staff affected. No family should have to endure this heartbreak, and no child should fear going to school.

Grief must lead to action. We urge our community to contact elected officials, demand meaningful action to prevent gun violence, and advocate for safer schools and communities.

Our children deserve the freedom to learn, create, dream, and grow in safety. Let’s stand together to make that a reality.
