1. Promoting theater as an art form and creating an audience who appreciates performing arts
We work on that through presenting live theatre performances and organizing cultural events and artistic festivals that serve Bethlehem in particular and reach various areas around the West Bank from north to south.
2. Empowerment and improving the quality of life of individuals
Through our various training programs targeting children, youth, and women, we are working to develop their personal life skills, and leadership abilities and to enhance the status and participation of women in various sectors.
3. Advocacy campaigns and social awareness
Through the Community Theater Program, we collaborate with numerous local and international organizations to implement programs and activities to raise social awareness about certain community issues. We believe that theater and performing arts are able to serve social causes. Theater is a tool to advocate, open dialogues, and stimulate change.
Over the years, we have worked on a wide range of societal issues: gender-based discrimination, women's right to education and political participation, domestic violence, youth unemployment, environmental issues, children's hygiene and healthy practices, etc.
4. Empowering people with disabilities and contributing to their social inclusion
Through the Inclusive Theater program, we seek to involve people with disabilities in different accessible training programs and theatre activities and enhance their self-confidence, which helps increase their social participation in a variety of ways.
5. Economic empowerment for artists
Inad Theater hires a group of artists and technicians on a freelance basis to work on different activities and projects around the year. We contribute to creating job opportunities for theater practitioners, including writers, directors, actors, sound and lighting technicians, and costume and set designers.
6. Promoting Inad Theater locally and internationally
We work on promoting our theater and building an excellent reputation on the managerial and artistic levels. As a professional theater group, we are keen on participating in local and international festivals. On the other hand, we are interested in cooperating with different networks and creating our own alliances with the organizations with which we share goals and objectives and are similar in scope of work.
