Thespi LLC
Helping theatre companies excel in an increasingly virtual world!
Mission and
Vision
Mission:
To help theater companies reach their virtual audience with ease by providing a mobile live streaming platform that allows them to both sell tickets and host live streamed shows in one virtual location.
Vision:
To be at the forefront of the new hybrid Theater industry and be the number one preferred choice for virtual live theater streaming, both in terms of producers and ticket purchasers.
About Thespi LLC
Thespi was born out of our own need. Thespi Founder and
CEO, Alexis Clash, owned and operated her own theater
company in 2019-2020. Right when our 2020 theatrical
season was about to start, the world shut down. So just like
everyone else, we were eagerly awaiting the day when
things would go back to “normal”. Fast forward to now, and
things have only gotten worse.
Slow to return patrons,
reduced ticket sales and declines in subscription rates have
made it painfully obvious that the theater industry must be
able to function in a virtual world. We have made it our
mission to create an easy to use tool that can help theater
companies excel in the virtual world!
How Thespi Works
Simply give us a call, text or email and we will schedule a live stream and set up your virtual ticket sales for you in the Thespi platform.
Then when show time comes, we will meet you at your venue with mobile cameras (and internet!) in hand. You focus on starting your show and we will simply open Thespi and click “Go Live”.
All the ticket holders who purchased a virtual ticket beforehand to watch your show live on Thespi, will then receive a notification on their mobile device telling them that your show is starting!
Why Thespi is Different
Unlike the competition, which are streaming
websites and on-demand theater content
providers, Thespi is different because we
focus on being an easy to use webapp
that connects theater companies to their virtual audience in real time.

TESTIMONIALS
"I'm so grateful for Alexis I love her professionalism ... we spoke that ... same day and by that evening she was there for our dress rehearsal to set things up and just was very patient ... while we were working through things and I like that she just did her job but she made sure that she...stayed out of the way too like she was very cognizant of her surroundings and I just felt like the professionalism was top tier ."

"Thespi helped us expand our reach and our visibility by streaming our play we gained new viewers who may not have been ever been able to travel to see us live or have never even heard of HOPE Productions. That expanded our exposure not only grew our audience but also strengthened our brand as a production company that values accessibility."
Angela, H.O.P.E Productions
"We already were in the thick of [the] recital, tickets sales, merchandise... the show and the dress rehearsal and all that, it wasn't another thing that I had to focus on. It was just the ease of use, it was set up and I didn't have to worry about it, everything was directed back to Thespi."
Bri, Bri's Dance Place
"It was low maintenance on my end ... as a .. owner of a business and ... I was [the] rehearsal director ... so I was focused on now the choreography and the running of the show ... I didn't have the capacity to add anything else on, so I love like the ease of use and I like the different angles as well and then I like the response time and getting everything back I felt like all of that was really good."
