Ten Thousand Things Theater Company is a theater with the belief that theater is for everyone. It was started 25 years ago by Michelle Hensley (who has recently left) who was determined to bring theater to those who rarely or never got to see it. With that mission in mind, they don't usually perform in traditional theaters or on a stage. Instead, they perform in a circle of chairs at correctional facilities, homeless shelters, women's shelters, senior care facilities, across rural Minnesota, and anywhere else they feel they can reach people who might need a spark of theater in their lives.
