OUT OF HAND THEATER INC

Out of Hand is starting a new season developing new work for you! In order to accomplish this, we need to raise $20,000 by the end of the year and we want you to be a part of it!

About your Investment:

This year, Out of Hand will develop 3 new science and art collaborations including:

- Without Which Nothing, with water experts

- Stop Me Because I Can't Stop Myself, with psychiatrist Jon Grant

- Awe, with playwright Steve Yockey

We will also continue to bring you workshops, residencies, and The Game.

AND THAT'S NOT ALL!!

After a successful Atlanta premiere and European tour this past summer, Out of Hand has decided to take Group Intelligence on tour in the US this coming Spring! Group Intelligence is a science and public art experiment where participants self-assemble like molecules, mimicking how life begins. Coming to a city near you!

Be a part of creating new work for new audiences and invest in Out of Hand Theater!

Mission Statement

Out Of Hand Theater makes new work for new audiences. We are an ensemble of theater makers who create ravishing, athletic performances with and for our ever expanding, beloved community. Out Of Hand creates razor-sharp, delight-filled experiences by:

• Involving the audience in a new way every time, giving you a stake in the show

• Magnifying the places where we, artists and audience, share common ground, causing moments of mass intimacy

• Embracing those who are unreached by conventional theater

Statement of Purpose

We believe we are only as good as our collaborators and our audience is our primary partner. We enlist the community in our creation process through free workshop performances, constant on-line dialogue, and collaborations with scientists, schools, and theater companies across the country.

We make theater accessible through bafflingly affordable ticket prices and free public performance in unexpected places.

We maintain a strong training regimen that challenges, inspires and expands the artists of Out of Hand, infusing Atlanta with a fully charged army of theater makers.

We share our collaborative approach to art and life with as many people as possible through performances, classes, residencies, parties, games, and collaborations with visual artists/thinkers/researchers/communities/activists/ teachers/students/leaders/followers.

Through collaboration, we seek a deeper understanding of the world.

Philosophy of Performance

• Relish the profound and the silly

• Create moments of mass intimacy

• Expand the boundaries of American storytelling

• Embrace relentless kindness

• Uncover meaning in the mundane

• Play at the speed of fun!
