We’re ugly
we’re young, restless, excited, driven, focused, bold, brash, creative, wild, messy, up, down, moldbreaking, failing, experimenting, new, old, smelly, technological, engaged, fruitful, full, simple, direct, frustrated.
Theatre is transparent and that’s why, though our ideas are unfinished, we’re sharing them with you — and asking you to tell us when they’re awesome or they suck or they don’t make sense.

theatre is not elite
theatre should not be elite
theatre looks outside itself
theatre is international
theatre is an international language
theatre can be scientific, theatre is a science, science is an art
theatre should evolve, give and take, change as it grows (not just the actors but the entire piece)
theatre is theater is theatre is theater
theatre should be connected to the community (not Community)
theatre is for the young, the old, the outsider, the insider, everything
theatre is a place for everything and everyone
theatre is amateur and professional and student
theatre is not delicate
theatre is strong, bold, brash, built
theatre is generous
theatre is digital
theatre is analog

theatre is a dialogue is a monologue, is always communicating
theatre is a cultural dialogue
theatre is self-deprecating
theatre is evolution
Yinzerspielen is something new and something old. We want to take theatre (something old) to the next level.
We did not say if that level is up or down.
