TheatreSquared provides year-round staff and production support for the work of the LatinX Theatre Project, an independent artistic affiliate.
The LatinX Theatre Project (LXTP) advocates for social change by creating ensemble-made, multi-disciplinary performances that uplift and unite under-represented communities throughout Northwest Arkansas. Now in its seventh year, the company began as a group of young folx gathering after school to share writings and perform rhymes to create a space that made them feel heard and seen. Today, LXTP is committed to providing a safe space that allows artists at every stage of their creative journey and BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ and/or people with disabilities to speak up, be seen, and celebrated. LatinX Theatre Project full-length plays include Follow Me @TioSam, Scratch That!, Blanket Statements, Crossroads, Arrivals & Salidas, Holy Waters. Digital offerings include Heroes & Monsters, Remedios, Remedios Vol. 2, and afterlife. LXTP's newest works have been featured annually in TheatreSquared's Arkansas New Play Festival since 2017. Their original music is available on Bandcamp and SoundCloud. LXTP is based in Springdale, Arkansas.
Major funding for the LatinX Theatre Project is provided by the Walton Family Foundation.
