The Transcendence Artist Project was a MASSIVE SUCCESS!


Our four month "Transcendence Artist Project" at The Gertrude Pearlman Theatre in Punta Banda, Mexico finished on a successful high note at the beginning of July! The Transcendence Theatre Company would like to thank EVERYONE who made this project possible. Thank you to all of our donors, our 15 specialists, our 19 sponsors, the board of The Gertrude Pearlman Theatre, and the communities of Punta Banda and Rosarito, Mexico. Without all of you, our entire exploration, theatrical performances, and community service projects would not have been possible. We thank all of you from the bottom of our hearts for your support and generosity. We encourage all of you to join our mailing lists so you can stay up to date with our company's mission and upcoming projects. The future is VERY bright for all of us!

The Transcendence Artist Project- Last Hoorah!

In the final stretch of the Transcendence Artist Project, we held a "Why I Love Theatre" night at the Gertrude Pearlman Theatre. Having shared many theatrical experiences with the community, we took the opportunity to connect with them on a deeper level by delving into their personal relationships to the theatre. We sat in a circle on the stage and candidly shared our heartfelt stories, songs and experiences with one another. It proved to be an incredible bonding experience characterized by a spirit of love for the theatre and a belief in its importance for our world!




Our last performance in Punta Banda was the perfect venue for us to express our appreciation for the community and to celebrate the future of our company! We held a gala fundraiser which included a review show interspersed with heartfelt speeches by company members, a silent auction, and a luncheon graciously donated by our friends and local restaurants Baja Mama's and La Bufadora Grill. We also commemorated the 14th anniversary of the Gertrude Pearlman Theatre by showing footage from it's grand opening in 1995. Together we toasted to our future endeavors and successes and left feeling satisfied that we had indeed had one last wonderful hoorah!
