Mission statement

We believe the arts are a fundamental component of thriving rural communities—strengthening them socially, educationally, and economically. Founded and developed by working artists and professionals, the Good Goblin Theater Company is focused on producing new and devised works of all mediums that reflect the stories, history, and culture of rural North Carolinians; as well as educate and entertain through artistic expression.

Good Goblin isn't a building, Good Goblin is truth in art. Good Goblin is an explosion of local artists gathering together to make something their own and take back the space in which to do it.

Art is for everyone and we're here to ensure the people of Halifax, Warren, Franklin, and Nash counties find their voice.

Good Goblin is an initiative of The Playwriting Collective, a 501c3 founded by Young in 2014 to support voices from lower economic backgrounds.
