Open Eye is nationally recognized for bringing a visual feast of evocative figure theater to the stage. The company's whimsical yet profound work surprises and delights whether experienced in the company's historic jewel box theater in Minneapolis or in neighborhoods throughout the Twin Cities with the Driveway Tour. From experimental object works to puppet shows in backyards to community pageants to miniature spectacles, Open Eye consistently creates a unique, contagious exchange between artists and audiences.
Open Eye is led by directors Michael Sommers and Susan Haas. Sommers is recognized as one of the country's most versatile and ingenious theatre artists. Haas is the visionary behind the Driveway Tour, Toy Theatre After Dark, It's Women's Work, and the showcase of artists on stage.
In a brilliant reuse of an architectural gem, Open Eye restored a 110-year-old historical storefront in south Minneapolis. The intimate, well-equipped theater seats up to 90, with adjacent shops, studios and gardens providing a creative haven for artists.
