TheatreSquared provides year-round staff and production support for the work of the LatinX Theatre Project, an independent artistic affiliate led by T2 Artistic Associate and LXTP Program Director Rebecca Rivas and by Artistic Director Ashley Edwards.

LatinX Theatre Project (LXTP) is a socially-engaged theatre group of professionals and young artists-in-training that is committed to continuing an inclusive conversation about community identity through its devised theatre performances. The content of LXTP’s work not only includes original dialogue, movement, music, poetry, and rap; but also brings a focus to the authentic representation of Latinx voices in the arts and community. In its fourth year, the project continues to develop new performances for the community and educational pieces for schools in the Northwest Arkansas region. LXTP is unique in the composition of its artistic ensemble, and its distinctive approach to creating work that can be experienced outside of the traditional theatre venue suited to collaborate with multidisciplinary cultural, community, and educational organizations across the region.

Major funding for the LatinX Theatre Project is provided by the Walton Family Foundation.
