Glass Half Full Theatre

Glass Half Full Theatre (Puppetry of Objects & Ideas) innovates performance structure and audience experience with original works featuring both humans and puppets that elevate issues of environmental and social justice with a focus on Latinx communities. Our bilingual plays cross linguistic and cultural boundaries towards the heart of the imagination, where artists and audiences examine how oppressive power structures work and how they can be overcome. Glass Half Full Theatre began making original work in Austin, Texas in 2011, addressing complex problems through an optimistic lens. We typically create one original work each year while presenting/ touring/ performing our existing works. Our local performances have served over 45,000 audience members in Austin, Texas. Our touring performances have visited 30 states, and performed for more than 100,000 people at 50+ performing arts venues across the nation. For the past five years, our work is exclusively bilingual (Spanish/ English) as we have embraced centering Latinx creators and audience.
