We believe in the power of carefully crafted performances to incite thoughts and inspire. We are starting small and have ambitious plans. We aim to have a full-time, permanent group of performers with whom to create and tour original work.
Mission:
We want to entertain, engage, stimulate thoughts, help, bring joy and positive sensations to the widest audience possible. We want to create and tour original work that explores topics in a multi-perspective way, and storytelling in narrative and abstract forms.
Values:
- To entertain and engage audiences
- To be widely accessible
- To be helpful to society
- To support new/young artists in their creative expression
- To be open-minded
- To explore cultural interchange and be culturally diverse
- To avoid commitment in regards to style, genre and creative technique
- Commitment to freedom of creativity
- Commitment to thorough historical and/ or cultural research when it is the case
- Environmental responsibility in the choice of costumes, props, settings and themes whenever possible
- To learn and create through collaboration and engagement with experienced creators of all artistic disciplines as well as with young creators
- Commitment to excellent work led by a moving body
