Thief at Know Theatre of Cincinnati

Know Theatre of Cincinnati is a non-profit theatre company located in the historic Over-the-Rhine neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, which produces contemporary and collaborative theatre that tends to be challenging and thought-provoking. MainStage performances occur in a 99-seat versatile black box theatre. Deep in The Underground, the second Cabaret Stage is where Know Theatre takes the biggest risks on emerging local talent. A 14-day celebration of theatre, art, music, film, dance, and everything between — it’s Cincinnati’s Summer Theatre Party hosted by Know Theatre! The Cincy Fringe (as it’s succinctly known) presents over 150 performances of 35+ theatre productions during the first two weeks of June, plus free Late Night programming every night of the festival at Fringe Headquarters – the Know Theatre. Founded in Season 27, the Know Theatre of Cincinnati provides dynamic educational programs that blend dramatic artistry with technical stagecraft: youth theatre camps, understudy programs, and educational matinees. Know Theatre of Cincinnati exists to build belonging through bold theatre. We are deeply committed to paying local theater-makers a fair wage for their work and providing resources to help local independent artists thrive. We believe in reciprocity over transaction. Collaboration shows up in how our team supports artists, how Fringe facilitates rather than prescribes, and how staff rely on one another across roles. We lead with transparency and truthfulness. From staff transitions to donor communications, integrity ensures we tell the truth even when it is difficult. We are entrusted with resources—financial, artistic, and relational—and we manage them with care for the future. Stewardship is accountability in practice.
