The mission of the Studio is to create an environment with the purpose of nurturing theatre artists who value humanity, their own and others, as their first and most precious priority while providing art and education to the greater community. The Studio's professional training programs are recognized amongst the best in the world. Free programs that serve the community include the Stella Adler Outreach Division, providing free training to inner-city youth, and the Harold Clurman Art Series, presenting world-class cultural events with accessible ticket prices.
