Voices Found Repertory

A team of resourceful problem solvers staging passionate and empathetic Shakespearean productions.

Voices Found Repertory is a nonprofit theatre company based out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Through experimentation, flexibility, and integrity, we strive to create theatre that unifies its audience; to develop a common artistic vocabulary and allow artists to work, learn, and play together; and to establish an inclusive safe space for exploration, communication, and empathy.

An update to our Board of Directors: Hannah Kubiak, a familiar face and longtime artist with VFR, will be stepping away from her position of Director of Education to attend grad school this fall. We are so excited for Hannah's new journey and we thank her for many years of leadership and theatre-making with us. Good luck, Hannah!

In addition, please join us in welcoming Phillip Steenbekkers to our Board of Directors as our newest Director of Education!

Today is our 10th birthday, and we wanted to take a look back at the past 10 years of VFR. We would not have made it this far without all of your unwavering support, and we are truly grateful to be a part of this theatre community. It hasn't been without its struggles and growing pains, but it's been one of the most rewarding journeys. Here's to the next 10 years of theatre for exploration, communication and empathy! That's us.

We’d like to sincerely thank the Milwaukee Diversity Generals for all the work they've put into this project. It's a huge undertaking and an extremely important conversation that's way past due.

Second, we clearly have a lot of work to do here at VFR and we own that responsibility. We want to walk the walk and not just talk the talk when it comes to diversifying our voices. Our mission has always been to create theater that unifies its audience. We're prioritizing our work going forward to achieve that.

With this mindset, we’ll continue pursuing our artistic passion: to make Shakespeare accessible to both artists and audiences regardless of experience.

Transparency update! (March 2026)

AI is everywhere you turn these days. At VFR, we strongly believe in the artistry, creativity and capability of our team. We continue our mission to support and advocate for artists across the board. Art is inherently human, and we pledge to keep it that way.

Artistic Director is thrilled to be at today. It's going to be a great time and he can't wait to see all the talent that comes out to the auditions. Break legs to everyone attending!

We know it's been a while since you’ve heard from us. We were planning to kick off our next season with a huge announcement and get you all excited for a VFR revamp. That's unfortunately not what this is... yet. (It IS coming, we promise.)

Part of the reason we've been quiet this past year is because, like so many of you, we've been navigating the constant onslaught of horrors committed by our government. We've all been processing and resisting individually, and the energy needed to run this company had to be diverged elsewhere.

As we continue to work towards our next season, we felt it was extremely important to make our stance known because silence is complacency. We stand in solidarity with our BIPOC, AAIP, LQBTQ+, immigrant and all marginalized friends and community members. We vehemently condemn ICE and this entire administration. We're doing everything we can to educate ourselves, advocate for change and fight for justice. We've included some resources and actionable items here -->https://linktr.ee/voicesfoundrep

Hey hi hello 👋 We know we've been a bit quiet lately. We're working to sort out some things on the business end of our company, and there's just *a lot of things* happening... everywhere. We promise a new season is still on the horizon and we're so excited to get the ball rolling. But in the meantime, we wanted to take a moment to say that today is our birthday 🎂 Pretty unreal to think we've been around for 9 years. We look forward to the next 9+ years of providing Shakespeare, sword fights, blood packs, and community to Milwaukee. Thank YOU for coming along on this journey with us. Be well, VFRiends ❤️

Today marks the end of our initial transparency posts. We hope these past few weeks have been insightful and have helped you all gain a deeper understanding of our company. This is just the start of our transparency, and we will continue to expand on this effort going forward. If you're ever looking to revisit our transparency initiative, you can find all the details on our website, linked in our bio.

Is there anything you're still curious about or questions we haven't covered yet? Drop us a comment and let us know what else you'd like to hear about!

We're coming up on our final two transparency posts this week! (You know, for now.) Today we take a look at our current long term goals for VFR.
