Join us May 17 for An Evening of Story
|
We'll be at the Workbar in Danvers, Massachusetts, on May 17 to share excerpts from our play Big Work, and lead a workshop aimed at exploring the complex role that work plays in our lives. Participants will be guidied through writing their own response to the questions asked by the play: What matters most to me? How do I balance all the pieces of my life? What do I want to leave behind? Come for an evening that harnesses the power of performance and the freedom that comes with owning and sharing your own story.

"Big Work" Available as an Audio Drama
|
Big Work weaves together verbatim excerpts of interviews with 17 strangers into a modern day meditation on the American Dream and how we define success and ourselves in the 21st century. Portraits of these real people reveal the rich inner lives we all lead, and beckon us to explore what questions we should be asking in order to truly know one another.
The original cast audio performance of Big Work is available on iTunes (under Audiobooks), Audible, and Amazon.com.

We Write and Tell True Stories to Foster Connection
|
Our mission is to foster understanding, empathy, and human connection through theatre that explores uncommon human experiences, and to tell entertaining, compelling true stories. We create and perform new theatre pieces based on research and interviews with real people. Sometimes we perform our plays live in traditional theatres or untraditional community spaces. Other times we share our shows as audio dramas, updating the radio play genre for the podcasting era, and allowing more people to experience these stories. Throughout the year, we can be found in various stages of creating new theatrical work: researching, interviewing, writing, and workshopping new pieces.
