Community EnsemblesAbout PLAY TANKPLAY TANK is an innovative talent development institute designed to support the professional growth of young adults deeply committed to working for community based organizations. PLAY TANK operates as a professional theater ensemble as we believe our next generation of community leaders must be compelling and skillful visionaries. PLAY TANK Community Theater EnsemblesPLAY TANK Community Theater Ensembles are performing arts companies composed of community members at individual program sites. These community ensembles are co-facilitated by a trained PLAY TANKER in partnership with an experienced Teacher Artist as a creative mentor.
