InnerVision Theater

The story of InnerVision Theater begins with Short Center Rep’s 2018 production of Inner Vision, in which longtime Short Center Rep actress Regina Brink directed performers who were blind or have low vision in an examination of misconceptions and misrepresentations about their community. Inspired by that experience, Brink and the actors organized as InnerVision Theater to continue presenting theater on themes related to blindness.

In 2022 the company has presented Country of the Blind, an original live radio drama adapted from a short story by H.G. Wells, and, as part of Short Center Rep’s Climate Theater project in 2024, Eye of the Storm, an original drama that explored the impacts of emergency planning processes on people who are blind or have low vision. Kaleidoscope, exploring the ways blindness and low vision lead to experiences of connection and disconnection within families, among peers and in society, was the company’s 2025 production.

As part of the Climate Theater project, InnerVision Theater collaborated with Short Center Rep and Theater V58 to launch ALL IN: The Festival of Accessible Theater in 2024. The festival returned in June 2025.

Ten actors are seated behind small tables arranged in a semi-circle facing the audience.
