Invoke Director's Lab
A company by directors, for directors
About
IDL is an artist led theatre company dedicated to the creation of new works of theatre and the development of the director's craft. Invoke Director's Lab will provide a safe, collaborative space for directors to grow and create; ultimately providing the USAmerican theatre community with expansive stories and evolved storytellers. We will accomplish this through three branches of programming: Full production, long-term workshop, and regular group gatherings focused on each director's growth through a collective and collaborative mindset.

Diversity of Voice: We recognize that a plurality of perspective is essential to equitable artistic practices and culture. We are committed to holding ourselves accountable and correcting harm done.

Artistic Investigation: We strive to start our creative process with questions rather than statements.
Artistic Excellence: We strive to create art of the truest and highest caliber.
Sustainability: We are committed to sustainable producing methods, because without a planet there are no artists.
