Mission

Torn space theater (tst) creates original aesthetically innovative performances; introduces internationally renowed contemporary drama to western new york; and cultivates the collaboration of actors, composers, sculptors, video artists and designers within their theater productions. Drawing on a post-dramatic aethetic - that is, the integration of text as only one element within the material experience of the performance. Tst offers both original drama and new interpretations of exesting plays. Using vivid imagery that both entertains and challenges the audience's theatrical expectations, tst fully incorporates other arts disciplines - eg, media, music and visual arts - into our design aesthetic.
