Theater Alliance is a non-profit professional theater in Washington, DC, professionally incorporated in 2000 with the goal of producing work that would illuminate the experiences, philosophies and interests of DC's diverse population. That goal was furthered in 2002, when Theater Alliance moved from its home at the Capitol Hill Arts Workshop to become the sole theater-in-residence at the H Street Playhouse. Once the H Street Playhouse closed, Theater Alliance moved to Southeast DC in 2013 to become the theatre-in-residence at the Anacostia Playhouse. In 2024, Theater Alliance began operating from a new space within a mixed-use development in Southwest Washington.

Theater Alliance was under the leadership of Producing Artistic Director Colin Hovde from 2011 to 2019. In January 2019, actor, director, and teaching artist, Raymond O. Caldwell was named Producing Artistic Director. In 2024, just before the relocation from Anacostia Playhouse, Shanara Gabrielle was named Producing Artistic Director.

As of 2025, it has produced more than 20 seasons.
