Home
/hōm/
Noun 1. the place where one lives
Home. The word conjures up different visions for each of us. Home can be a place we physically reside; it can be where our family or friends live; it can mean something spiritual; it can be internal rather than external. As we began our show selection process, the popular adage “Home is where the heart is” immediately sprang to mind.
For many of us, PVTC is a home away from home, and a safe place where we can make art straight from the heart. Come join us this summer for an exploration of what home means to each one of us. We are so excited to welcome you back home – not only to the redwoods, but back into the theater and onto our stage!
