The Center for Immigrant Resources & Community Arts (CIRCA) -Pintig is a Chicago-based community theater, that started as a street-performing group in 1986 as part of the anti-dictatorship and anti-intervention movements at that time and formally established as a 501(c)3 nonprofit in 1991. CIRCA-Pintig believes in the power of theater for engaging community members in movements for social transformation through collective reflection, storytelling and grassroots action.
