Who we are
About
A brand new nonprofit theatre company in Fate, Texas.
Our mission
Fate Community Theatre is a brand new nonprofit theatre company in Fate, Texas, making live theatre with and for the people of Rockwall and Hunt County — on stage, backstage, and in the seats.
We were founded in 2026 by Kortney Curtis, on the simple idea that a town this size should not have to drive to see a play, and that anyone who wants to make one should be able to.
Our first production is Oscar Wilde’s Lady Windermere’s Fan, cast entirely from open auditions. Every part was open, and nobody needed a résumé to walk in and read.
We are a community of artists making theatre for its own sake, with a place for every member of the community, from cast to crew and audience to stage ghost.
How a show gets made
How a show comes together
Every production is cast from open auditions. Nobody needs a résumé or a headshot to walk in and read, and every part is open. From there it is read-throughs, rehearsals, build days and tech week.
Where to find us
Out in the community
You will find us at markets, festivals and civic events around Rockwall and Hunt County, signing up volunteers and new members and talking about what is coming next.
We held our first auditions at The Hub at Fate Station. Our performances are at the Pavilion at Fate Station, the paved area by Sauce & Vine: free, outdoors, and bring your own chair or blanket.
There is a place here for you
Cast, crew, audience, or stage ghost. Every one of those is a way in.
