MISSION STATEMENT |
Fovea
Floods Theater is a not-for-profit theater company committed to stretching
the vocabulary of contemporary theater. Our mission is to harness a modern
theatrical voice through both the creation of new work and revitalized,
compelling productions from the classic canon. The company's work employs
Brechtian theory, cinematic techniques, and sensory bombardment to produce
shows that are acutely visual, explosive and literate. Fovea Floods aims
to create a style of theater that can compete with the appeal, excitement
and spectacle of sporting events and modern film. The company, incorporated
in 1998, has since produced shows in New York City, Albany, NY, Washington,
DC, Los Angeles, CA and Saratoga Springs, NY. |
