Pallas Theatre Collective

Pallas Theatre Collective Fostering the legacy and future of the American musical in the Washington, D.C. area. Who is Pallas? Pallas appears in Greek Mythology.

The daughter of Triton, Pallas was raised alongside Athena, goddess of wisdom, courage, strength, and inspiration. She was Athena’s closest friend, and they often engaged in friendly fights and competitions. She was Athena’s equal and her favorite sparring partner. While Athena, goddess of wisdom, inspiration and the arts, may represent much of what we seek as working artists, her unpredictable na

ture is not for us. We are not the Athena Theatre Collective. We want to be more like Pallas, acting as a sounding board and sparring partner for working artists. Pallas Theatre Collective collaborates with artists and provides them with the opportunity to explore their work and find their perfect audience. We are here for anyone in need of a place to delve into his or her craft. Pallas herself is not a household name, but she helped Athena gain strength and recognition. In our theatre collective, we strive to emulate Pallas’ selfless spirit, her love, and her dedication.

It is with great sadness, that Pallas is announcing it's closure. We do so at the end of 7 profitable seasons - the last of which was 90% sold out - in the D.C. area developing new musicals and assisting new musical creators. Without space for art, especially the American art of musical theatre, the nation will lose its soul.

We have learned a lot from watching other companies thrive and then close, and therefore, we are making the decision to close on a high -- with all of our debts paid, and assets to give another small company. We are thankful that Tracey's academic position will allow the new musical development process that was honed at Pallas to continue in the future in another capacity.

We thank the D.C. community for 7 years!

Facing the loss of its Crystal City venue to the retail giant, Synetic Theater searches for an affordable space.
