About Us:

The Clear Space Theatre Company, a 501(c)3 cultural organization, founded in 2004, is located at 20 Baltimore Avenue, Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971. The Clear Space Theatre Company is comprised of  a remarkable team of full-time, part-time, and volunteer administrators, artists, and educators.

The Three Facets of Clear Space are: The Acting Company (a professional acting company producing dozens of performances each season); The Arts Institute (an educational program offering classes to more than 500 students of all ages); On Tour (community presentations in southern Delaware using professional actors and outstanding students, offered in cooperation with local civic groups).

Clear Space’s Current Operating Budget is supported 70% by earned income (ticket sales, tuition, and performance contracts) and 30% by contributed income (including individual donors, local businesses, and grants).

Governance and Management of Clear Space Theatre Company is conducted within the guidelines of a regularly updated Strategic Plan implemented by professional staff, a volunteer board of directors, several independent contractors and a devoted and growing volunteer corps.
