ALL OUR TRAGIC is designed to create a contemporary Festival of Dionysus, the ancient gatherings for which these tragedies were originally crafted - to bring together a daily community to bond, eat food, drink wine and discuss complicated topics of society that we have been wrestling with since the creation of civilization.

The production team for ALL OUR TRAGIC includes: Tom Burch (scenic design), Alison Siple* (costume design), Jared Moore (lighting design), Kevin O'Donnell+ (sound design), Danielle Case (props design) and Miranda Anderson and Justine Palmisano (co-stage managers).
