Our Why

An ensemble based theater company whose purpose is to create impactful stories while providing a home for artists to grow.

Curiosity “I see”

“To the natural philosopher this is no object unimportant or trifling. From the least of nature’s works he may learn great lessons. He walks in the midst of wonders” – John Herschel

Authentic “I think”

“Ask yourself in the most silent hour of your night, must I write? Dig into yourself for a deep answer. And if it rings out in assent, if you meet this solemn question with a strong, simple “I must,” then build your life in accordance with this necessity; your whole life, even into its humblest and most indifferent hour, must become a sign and witness to this impulse.” – Rainer Maria Rilke

Dedication “I do”

“Today, Hamlet, tomorrow an extra, but even as an extra – an artist.” – Constantin Stanislavski
