Nominated for: BEST Theatre Group
Hedgerow Theater has its roots in the early 20th Century artisan/craftsman movement, which valued individual-expression in contrast to the impersonal nature of the Industrial Age. Visionary actor/director Jasper Deeter fell in love with the intimacy of Rose Valley 's gristmill-turned borough hall, and in 1923 acted upon the opportunity to create Hedgerow as a theatre with an artistic rather than a commercial purpose. Deeter's creative energy drew many talented actors, playwrights, and directors to Hedgerow, earning Hedgerow an international reputation, the distinction of being the first resident repertory theater in the country, and an identity as The Mother of all Philadelphia Theaters. Hedgerow was a premier meeting ground for major actors of stage and screen in the 1920s and 1930s and was destined to spawn innovative theater companies such as People's Light and Theater Company and Freedom Theater.
