MISSION STATEMENT

SeeNoSun OnStage is a Washington DC 501(c)3 non-profit theater company dedicated to education, writing and performance in the horror and suspense genre.  Our mission is to create a compelling theatrical experience that expands an understanding of the human condition by bringing provocative plays to life that explore the human monster and the unspeakable acts they commit.

We have been accepted as a Washington-area professional theatre organization with theatreWashington by the Helen Hayes Awards Board of Governors and have been eligible for full awards consideration since our 2016/17 season.


SeeNoSun was awarded a 2017 project grant from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities that partially funded our production of Doubt; A Parable.
