Built on the foundation that great innovations are the result of a cross-cultural migration of ideas, forms, and practices, the company investigates all mediums of global performance to fuel the experimentation and expansion of theatrical form. This research, rooted in the belief that theater is the performative space between a source and a witness, moves beyond the stage to explore some of the world’s most important ritual, spiritual, and artistic traditions. Company members lead curated research teams, focusing on regions and practices as driven and articulated by training needs, production themes, and company methodologies. The result is a vast and varied archive that spans across continents and time, becoming the fuel for the company’s laboratory and creative explorations.
