MACHINE \mə-ˈshēn\ :
an assemblage of parts that transmits forces, motion, and energy one to another in a predetermined manner.
NOT YOUR AVERAGE CHARITY.
Machine Theatre…
is a collective of Actors, Directors, Designers, Writers, Musicians, and Artisans creating new theatrical experiences for Charlotte, North Carolina, and beyond. We believe in the power of storytelling, the magic of poetic faith, and the value of community.
Our Mission...
Machine Theatre is committed to radically altering the profile of contemporary theatre in the Southeast and beyond, the continued development of creative vision through ensemble training, and the generation of new work as well as inventive adaptation of classic texts. With collective tenacity and imaginative spirit, Machine Theatre creates engagements of brutal and elegant humanity.
SO WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
This means a charitable theatre company that offers top notch performances of new works and adaptations. This means a stronghold in the community of Charlotte where artists can come together to work, train, perform, and educate each other and their audiences. This means something different. Welcome to the Machine.
