Jewish Theatre of Bloomington

Jewish Theatre of Bloomington, Indiana's only Jewish Theatre Company, is deeply committed to both Jewish culture and the theatre. It is our intent to produce works that arise from or reflect the Jewish experience, but that also focus on universal issues of the human condition that are accessible to a diverse audience. Our aim is to bring together an audience of Jews and non-Jews to explore aspects of Jewish life in a modern world.

OUR ORIGIN

The genre of Jewish theatre is a vibrant performing arts experience with a rich and long standing international history. "For me, it is  an extension or outgrowth of what I had been doing informally for several years in the Jewish community," says Audrey Heller, co-founder and emeritus Producing Artistic Director.  

In 2025 JTB kicked off its 20th anniversary as a theatre company and Darrell Ann Stone began as the new JTB Producing Artistic Director.  Darrell Ann brings an artistic passion for storytelling, love for the arts, commitment serving the community and a lifetime foundation of theatre experience. She is thrilled to now have a focus completely on theatre and follow in Audrey Heller’s footsteps. “Audrey has been an important mentor, colleague and friend. It’s an honor to succeed her, and a privilege to guide this theatre company into its future.”
