Who We Are
(Photo by Kája Curtis)
A collective of international artists who play to explore Shakespeare’s rehearsal & performance practices – especially those of stage-craft – exploring new tools for modern production & education.
A travelling Ensemble, we engage with communities around the world. As we tour, we create and re-create each show, listening to our environment, our audience, and each other. We adapt rehearsal methods from Shakespeare’s time to raise our shows in 3-5 days.
