The Ally Artists Group

The Ally Artists Group Is a theatre and on-camera production company with an arts education program.  Founded in 2012, by Joyce Lao (Joyce Laoagan), its purpose is to showcase diverse talents and stories that promote and encourage inclusive, out-of-the-box storytelling and social awareness.

Mission:

The Ally Artists Group is a Theater and Film Production collective that is dedicated to telling Asian, indigenous, aboriginal and diverse, compelling stories in different genres (comedy, thriller, drama, horror)  that challenge conventional narratives and push the boundaries of artistic expression. Through experimental and out-of-the-box methods, we aim to create immersive and thought-provoking experiences that resonate with audiences from all walks of life.

Vision:

We envision a world where theater and film productions are not limited by traditional forms or expectations. We strive to be a catalyst for change, inspiring artists and audiences alike to embrace their creativity and explore new possibilities. By providing a platform for diverse voices and perspectives, we hope to foster a more inclusive and equitable society.

Artists:

• Emerging artists from all backgrounds, with a particular focus on supporting and uplifting those from indigenous, Asian, POC, and other diverse communities who face systemic barriers and limited opportunities within the arts industry.

• We aim to provide these artists with a platform to showcase their work, connect with audiences, and further develop their artistic careers.

Audience:

• Our programs and performances are designed to engage a wide range of backgrounds.

• We tailor our arts education programs and performance concepts to suit the specific needs and interests of different age groups, ensuring that everyone can access and enjoy the arts.

• We believe in the power of the arts to inspire, educate, and entertain people of all ages, and we strive to make our programs accessible and inclusive for all.
