We defy the convention that a theater must be a black room, spiked with glow tape, with scene changes hidden by black-outs.

We defy the notion of the audience as spectator; you can ‘view’ a movie or TV from a darkened room, but we promise to communicate directly with you refusing to leave you out of the action.

We defy the idea that any actor, on the basis of age, gender, or ethnicity is ‘inappropriate' for any role. They’re actors, aren’t they? Is it not fascinating to see them stretch their muscles, to grapple with a challenging role that they would never play in another theater troupe, and to bring a unique life to the character?

And because you recklessly join us in these daring conceits, you the audience, are complicit in this defiance as well. And we thank you for your courageous imagination.

Devon Armstrong
Artistic Director
