​Maria and Tony Caprile named Members Emeritus
Founded in 2009 as an ensemble theater, Winding Road Theater is now focused on operating as a traditional production company with a core leadership team committed to engaging Tucson’s broad and diverse talent pool in all its shows.
However, several key principles carry over from our origins, most notably our commitment to:
  • Developing and elevating new works
  • Amplifying fresh voices
  • Expanding opportunities for artists and audiences
Our mission -  to  illustrate how life choices we make lead us to become the humans we are today -  remains at the core of our work, guiding us as we refocus and reinvigorate our programming.

The Odyssey Lab

Winding Road Theater has created The Odyssey Lab, a formal program to foster the creation of new works, especially those created by artists with a connection to Tucson and Southern Arizona.

From its inception, Winding Road Theater included productions of new works. One of its founders, Toni Press-Coffman, had numerous full-length plays staged by the Company, and that tradition continued for many years.

The Odyssey Lab revives this creative cornerstone by establishing a supportive environment for playwrights and creative teams to refine and realize their vision (and simultaneously honing their technical, improvisational, and creative skills). There's certainly no shortage of enthusiastic performing artists available and interested in helping with the development of new works.
​

The Odyssey Lab integrates staged readings and extensive real-time workshopping, culminating in a fully staged production of a brand new play.​

Eight 10s in Tucson

Winding Road Theater will also provide a platform for new voices with the return of its ten-minute play festival, Eight 10s in Tucson.
​
Eight 10s gives audiences an evening's worth of short stories - comedies, dramas, and everything in between - with perspectives from across America. More than 300 scripts are read, scored, and reviewed to yield eight ten-minute plays certain to entertain. And we engage multiple directors and actors to stage each show, providing opportunities for many Tucson artists to showcase their talent.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING WINDING ROAD!

Funding the Arts is always a challenge. Ticket sales typically cover only 50% of our expenses for any single production, so we rely heavily on grants, sponsorships, and individual donations from theater enthusiasts like you!

Please donate in support of our 2024/2025 season today! Your financial help this year is more critical than ever, given that grant funding in Arizona is at an all-time low.

Your generosity has a huge impact on our ability to deliver the highest quality productions for Tucson theatergoers, and we thank you for everything you do for us!
