We believe in offering artists time – time to try, time to fail, time to discover all of the things their ideas will not become. Residency provides money, space, and mentorship, building lasting relationships that extend beyond Residency’s end. Each year we offer space free of charge, technical expertise, mentorship, producing support, and access to other artists also in Residency, opening the doors to collaboration and cross-pollination of ideas.
Due to the nature of Residency in which we follow the lead and the needs of the artists in the program, we do not have a regular call for new projects or participants. We put out calls for submissions when space in the program becomes available, and you’ll hear about it first from our newsletter.
We’d love if you join the artists on the journey. Showings happen three times over the course of the year, giving artists the opportunity to share their work and test ideas, and giving you a chance to see the work develop and engage with the creative process. If you’ve been to a showing, you already know to expect the unexpected—scenes, readings, music, questions, games, conversations—nothing is off-limits. The path to the piece is rarely a straight line and we wholeheartedly encourage experimentation along the way.
The work that comes out of Residency has been innovative, deeply personal, and often challenges traditional ideas of what theatre is. To be the first to know about a Residency showing, production, or a call for applications, subscribe to our newsletter.
