"In the theater...there is a kind of Strange Sun, a light of abnormal intensity by which it seems that the difficult and even the impossible suddenly become our normal element."
-Antonin Artaud
Welcome to Strange Sun Theater Company
Our Mission is to create theater and tell stories that illuminate our humanity through a shared experience of the magic of theater.
The Vision of Strange Sun Theater:
Theater is magic in its most basic form, with the power to reveal the complex difficulties and unexpected joys of all our lives.
We believe the dialogue among artist, audience and community, shared in the spirit of simplicity and truth, has the power to evoke this magic.
Now more than ever we are compelled to call upon the magic of theater by bringing the finest theater artists together with dynamic audiences to focus this strange sun upon our shared humanity, releasing us from the ordinary, igniting us with the power of possibility.
Strange Sun Theater Company was founded in New York City in 2011 by Artistic Directors, Jessica Bashline and Evan Mueller with the help of a small group of dedicated founding & board members.
