Signature Theatre is built on the unceded lands of Lenapehoking, homeland of the Lenape, which was colonized by European settlers starting in the 17th Century. We are a home for storytellers, and this acknowledgement is only a starting point in our commitment to building an inclusive community. As part of that commitment, we lift up playwrights and storytellers of all cultures, and welcome all audiences in our spaces.
