Just sharing in this space what we are saying in another. We will say more probably (isn't a Blog about what you're saying - and maybe some people saying something back?). Anyway, we've been working hard a year to make this happen... and now it will.
Sanctuary: NextStage is an ambitious new live performance company, based in NYC, practicing state of the art theatre work. It is a permanent resident company, producing new work in a hothouse environment, where pressure to deliver new work on schedule will be minimized to allow for work to germinate, take seed and be carefully cultivated.
Sanctuary: NextStage will generate new ideas and metaphors to re-enliven the art of live performance by rooting it in story. It will have a strong emphasis on poetic and metaphoric text, visual, audio, and universal delight. Since this is hard in the connected-but-separate scene of today, we implement a comprehensive & intensive training training program that enables the hard-working performers to fill the gaps.
Why do you love the theatre?
Think back to the moments when you had peak theatrical experiences as an audience member. What do they all have in common? Those experiences are why you love the theatre. What if a company could find a way to make sure the audience always had peak experiences? Theatre can – and must – be a mind-changing, life-enhancing experience that enriches all. If it is anything less than this, it is not succeeding to its real and full potential. It is our job as makers of theatre to be co-authors of its apotheosis.
