Theatre of the Performing Arts

For over 50 years, the Theatre of the Performing Arts in Shreveport has been dedicated to training and showcasing talented African-American actors, dancers, musicians, and vocalists, providing vital performances for the Shreveport and Bossier communities. Organized as a non-profit tax-exempt corporation, the theatre aims to fill an artistic void while emphasizing the rich traditions and significant contributions of African-American culture to local, state, and global contexts.

Through its various programs, including seminars, workshops, and artist-in-residency initiatives, the Theatre of the Performing Arts fosters the preservation of culture, arts, and history among both rural and inner-city populations. With a mission rooted in community engagement, the theatre serves as a vital resource for promoting artistic expression and cultural heritage.
