Articulating the Arts:
Off the Wall Articulating the Arts is Articulate Theatre Company's signature benefit event. It brings together our Company members and guest artists with unique works of art to use as a springboard and source of inspiration for new theatre works. Our first session focused on playwrights taking "one image" and giving us "a thousand words." It was such a success we've decided to bring it back for a second round. This session takes the images "Off The Wall" and puts them on the stage!
We found different paintings, a larger space and added a few guest playwrights. Audience comments from last time cited the "smart and nuanced writing," the "wonderfully curated" arc of the evening's presentation, and how much the professional production values added to the stories. We're raising the bar for this production, and we hope you'll be just as pleased, if not more! Thank you to all who attended Articulating the Arts: Off the Wall. To be notified of future productions, please sign up for our newsletter!
