Moving Stories that Move Us Forward.

 
 

WHAT WE DO

The mission of Motus Theater is to create original theater to facilitate dialogue on critical issues of our time. We aim to use the power of art to build alliances across diverse segments of our community and country.

 

UndocuAmerica project

 

Motus Theater's UndocuAmerica project interrupts the dehumanizing portrayals of immigrants by encouraging thoughtful engagement on the challenges facing the undocumented community and the assets immigrants bring to our country.

JUSTUS PROJECT

 

The JustUs project supports community leaders who are impacted by carceral systems to tell artfully crafted autobiographical monologues that expose the devastating impact of the criminal legal system and inspire action towards a vision of true justice.
