To use the transformative power of drama to preserve, celebrate and explore the Italian American experience for:
- Our children and grandchildren, to strengthen their ties to their Italian American heritage
- Our fellow Italian Americans, to inspire us to share our cultural legacy for the common good
- The community at large, to offer a compelling, thoughtful and nuanced portrayal of the Italian American experience
- Recent immigrants, by committing proceeds to support their education and welfare, as our forbears were helped by visionaries like Jane Addams and Mother Cabrini
