Collaboration is the core tenet of our creativity. Working across cultures and disciplines, our productions are energized by the collision and confluence of difference. Since our inception in 1996, our artistic focus has been one that explores cultural hybridity and interdisciplinarity through consciously convening artists from diverse backgrounds. We have toured extensively nationally and internationally, maintain a strong level of engagement with our professional arts services organizations, and provide meaningful outreach into the community. Focusing on expanding creative possibilities through innovation and collaboration, we have a repertoire that includes 60 original creations and unique presentations.
