ABOUT / SEEKING:
Theatre’s statement: “SITI Company was built on the bedrock of ensemble. We believe that through the practice of collaboration, a group of artists working together over time can have a significant impact upon both contemporary theater and the world at large. SITI Company is committed to providing a gymnasium-for-the-soul where the interaction of art, artists, audiences and ideas inspire the possibility for change, optimism and hope. Founded in 1992 by Anne Bogart and Tadashi Suzuki, and a group of likeminded artists, SITI Company began as an agreement to redefine and revitalize contemporary theater in the United States through an emphasis on international cultural exchange, training and collaboration.”
Seeking:
Please note that the majority of roles throughout the season will be cast with SITI Company members. At this time, the company is not seeking new members.
Performers with previous experience or interest in both the Suzuki and Viewpoints training are particularly encouraged to attend. Performers of all ethnic and racial backgrounds are encouraged to attend.
(The Viewpoints and the Suzuki Method of Actor Training are two methods of training used in building and staging SITI productions. It is through the dialogue between Suzuki and Viewpoints, these two distinct, yet complementary approaches to the art of acting, that the philosophy and technique of SITI Company is continually explored, revitalized and articulated.)
