It begins...

It is said that all creation is a suffering.

It is certainly true that birthing something out of little more than passion and force of will is, shall we say, taxing. Yet, for all of the angst, here it is...a new theatre company. Unproven, untried, uncertain... undaunted, unbowed, unabashedly wide-eyed.

We have but one goal: "To create something wonderful." That's all, nothing cosmic. We're not out to make a buck, or change the world, or bring theatre to the masses, or even to provide a venue for the artist. Sure, all of that would be nice, and I hope we do all of those things; but more than anything else, first and foremost, it's about the wonder...the kind of wonder that makes you shiver and quake in a tangle of passion drenched sheets...the kind of wonder that makes you jump that last foot into bed because you just know there's something under there...the kind of wonder that makes you laugh and cry for reasons no one else can fathom...the kind of wonder that makes others want to know what they're missing...the kind of wonder that touches.

So there it is in a relatively longer that it probably should be nutshell. Stay with us...because something wonderful this way comes.
