Theatre Louisiane is a performance laboratory that encourages exchanges of artistic ideas. It was founded in New Orleans in 1999, & was incorporated as a non-profit, private professional arts organization in the Great State of Louisiana in 2001. Theatre Louisiane (aka 'Tit-Loo) has received critical acclaim for highly diverse artist-centered performances that range from progressive, revisionist versions of the classics, to cutting edge plays, to organic original projects. Our artists prefer non-traditional projects & the pushing of boundaries. We're committed to bringing accessible, affordable, high-quality artistic presentation to South Louisiana & beyond. A key part of our mission has always been to offer work that is not typically done in this region so that audiences can experience new work despite their financial or social status. We are by Louisianians. And ultimately we are for Louisianians. The artists of 'Tit-Loo were recognized as "People to Watch" by
