Created from a desire to use our theatre space to make a home for new theatrical works, and a place for emerging artists to flex their wings, Stripped Bare is an incubator to test-drive new ideas. Stripped Bare is about theatre at its core. A Stripped Bare project is not about sets, lights, props, and costumes. It is about actors, words, passion, movement, and ideas.

A Stripped Bare project...

Is on its feet.

Plays with form.

Experiments with an artistic idea.

Pushes personal artistic boundaries.

Re-imagines classics or creates brand new work.

Is driven by the art.

It is not...

A staged reading.

A full production. Seriously. So that means, there is no…

  • Set (There is no rigging, no flats, no repainting of the space, no changing of the curtain placements.)
  • Lights (You can use our rep plot, but there is no re-focusing. We encourage you to think simply if you do any cuing.)
  • Sound (You can have a few sound cues, but no mics.)
  • Projector (With very rare exceptions)
  • Props (You may bring in and use simple, minimal furniture or props.)
