Trading Faces
Our theatre mask work program goes beyond simply stepping into another person's shoes; it invites students to look in the mirror and see another face. This unique approach shifts the way individuals see and experience themselves. Participants create the character of someone they admire, wish to be, or don't understand, gaining invaluable insight and inspiration.
We've successfully conducted this program with high-risk youth, including a six-week, 180-hour play-building initiative for Denver Juvenile Court. Participants, who were in drug and alcohol treatment and had histories of violent offenses as members of rival gangs, came together to produce an original 90-minute performance through mask work. But mask work isn't just for high-risk youth. It is a unique and exciting exercise for everyone
Mask work doesn't just 'trade faces'; it changes perspectives and has the power to transform lives. Join us in this extraordinary journey of self-discovery and personal growth through the art of theatre mask work.

Play Building
Unlock creativity and bring ideas to life with our Collaborative Play Building Program. This unique production style empowers participants to create an original play, from concept to performance, using their own ideas and topics.
In this program, students don’t just act; they become a playwright, director, and creator. Participants choose and write the parts they want to play, shaping characters and stories that resonate personally.
Use our carefully designed lesson plans or hire an experienced facilitator to help your classroom, club or community work as a team to develop a cohesive and compelling narrative.
Whether you’re exploring personal themes, societal issues, or fantastical tales, our Play Building Program provides the perfect platform to express your creativity, collaborate with others, and experience the magic of theatre. Join us and watch ideas come to life on stage!
