Abstract

The Little Theatre Movement of the 1920’s – particularly its definitive roots at Hollins University – parallels fiscal, social, political and artistic conditions impacting today. Further extrapolating the ethos and applying it to current accelerator and incubator modeling for business and arts nonprofit organizations offers intriguing opportunities to redefine, reimagine and evolve how we do the business of theatre artmaking.
