We can work directly with you or your property manager to arrange for any needed services prior, during or following the guest artist residency. Residencies can last from 10 days to 5 weeks and are managed through Off Square Theatre’s Company Manager. If you are away for part of the year, have an unused guest house, or would simply enjoy welcoming an artist into your home, please let us know. Email info@offsquare.org to begin the process.

“I’ve been supporting Off Square Theatre for more than a decade because storytelling is a powerful and necessary part of being human. Off Square does this with excellence and integrity, creating shared experiences for our entire community and connecting us to each other. Bravo!”

Mel OrchardSpence Law Firm

"Why I support Off Square:
Background - We moved here from Chicago – an epicenter of wonderful theatre – and I yearly travelled to New York City and Stratford, Ontario, for theatre trips. We spent years going to London and Stratford-upon-Avon and made theatre a center of those trips.
So….it is a thrill to be part of an organization in Jackson that brings professional theatre, at a level commensurate with any of those locations."
