Catalyst Repertory is an Indianapolis-based, repertory, community theatre company. Catalyst is also a traveling troupe, meaning we do not have our own dedicated space, we partner with local venues and theatres and bring our productions to a variety of local venues. This has allowed us to be able to pair the right venue to the show; helping us in creating a variety of worlds and installations around Indianapolis. As a repertory troupe, you may see a certain roster of constant players, but this does not mean that Catalyst Repertory is exculsionary. We are always looking for ways to feature new, like-minded creators on our team and to benefit the Indianapolis community with bold, high-caliber art. 

Catalyst focuses on producing new plays or new adaptations of classic plays. We also focus on ‘difficult’ or ‘grittier’ modern works, not often produced in the Midwest. In 2015, we offically opened the ‘doors’ to our first season, at Fountain Square’s Grove Haus, with Artistic Director, Casey Ross’s, original script, The Ripple Effect. We enjoyed a sold out house, our first opening night and have remained a mainstay Indianapolis company to this day, and we owe that all to the support of amazing local arts sponsors…like you.
