We are a theater team founded by stage director and choreographer Natasha Mirny and actor Tia Shearer. Both of us have been in theater for more than 10 years, acting, directing, devising, and running our own theater projects in the US, Russia, and Europe.
We both believe in a theater that unites, heals, and inspires people. In the fall of 2017 we wrote, devised, and produced our show "AntiCone" - a contemporary version of the Sophocles' Antigone story told through the language of interactive physical theater, dance, clowning and traffic cones.
