Mission
Our mission at Isthmus Theatre Collaborative is to discover and cultivate virtual and in-person spaces for artists to galvanize ideas into collective action through embodied storytelling. Our goal is to create a rich body of work in the coming years. Each piece created within the Collaborative will stand on its own, while also conjoining to form a cohesive, figurative isthmus mapped by topography in visual landscape and thematic motif.
Across the country, a diverse roster of artists is being assembled to give and receive support in the development of new work that transcends barriers, uses a variety of mediums and forms of expression, illuminates underrepresented stories, and makes the invisible, visible. Together, we will forge ongoing exploration, communication, and initiation into the present moment.
Fundraising Goal
We are asking for your support to help fund:
1. Start up costs: the purchase of filmmaking equipment- $4000
2. Artist stipends for our first project, Haiku - $2000
Haiku
Haiku is a bridge-building exploration of translation in the sonic, movement, & language arts with a composer, a dancer, and an ASL signer from the deaf community. It features an original composition by Moira Smiley inspired by the haiku by Kobayashi Issa:
In this world
We walk on the roof of hell
Gazing at flowers
Timeline
We are filming very soon! 11/19 & 11/20 in New Haven, VT
Pre-releases and private screenings will begin on January 1st, 2024
Public release on February 1st, 2024!
Why support Isthmus Theatre Collaborative?
We believe in the power of storytelling to elevate the human experience and to affect change in this wildly vulnerable world.
We are committed to providing high quality, thoughtfully crafted, conscientious and relevant work and fostering safe and brave spaces for creators of all kinds to share and amplify their stories.
Your support will strengthen our foundation while planting the seeds of enduring innovation, hope and vision.
Thank you for being here. For your curiosity. Your passion. Your generosity.
