Our Story
Inspiration's Edge was born from a shared vision to co-create a theater that truly reflects the diverse voices and vibrant spirit of our local hi-desert community. As a mobile theater, we perform in found theater spaces all over the Morongo Basin, bringing the magic of theatre right to everyone's doorstep. By transforming everyday spaces into stages, we increase the inclusion and availability of performing arts, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to experience and participate in the transformative power of theater.
​
At Inspiration's Edge, we believe every individual has life experiences worthy of contribution. That’s why we strive to provide a platform for artists of all backgrounds and experiences to showcase their talents and share their stories with audiences far and wide, impacting and inspiring others through the power of performing arts. Whether you’re a seasoned performer or stepping onto a stage for the first time, there’s a place for you here at Inspiration’s Edge.
​
Our commitment to inclusion extends beyond our performances to every aspect of our organization. We actively seek out opportunities to collaborate with local artists, businesses, community groups, and organizations to ensure that our productions authentically represent the rich tapestry of the Morongo Basin. From casting to production design, we know that it is through embracing and celebrating our differences that we truly thrive as a community.
​
But Inspiration’s Edge is more than just a theater – it’s a gathering place, a creative hub, and an inspired home for a vibrant community of artists, dreamers, and innovators who join together to push the boundaries of creativity and support one another in their artistic endeavors. Whether you’re joining us for a show, participating in one of our workshops or events, or simply stopping by to soak in the creative energy, you’ll always find a warm welcome and a supportive community here at Inspiration’s Edge.
