One of the intrinsic parts of our mission is giving artists a place to play. We’re always worked to foster an environment where our performers, technicians, artistic staff, and company members feel emboldened to try their hand at new aspects of theatre. We also pride ourselves on creating seasons that contain a blend of newer fringe works, as well as better known shows that our audiences will be excited to see. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, Pipe Dreams is still committed to giving artists space to play, such as producing digital works like our recent show, Stranded. Help us to continue creating opportunities to help audiences to “play” by donating $10 today!
Another important factor of the mission of Pipe Dreams is creating a place to experiment. In our New Works program, we are constantly providing opportunities for the creation of new art. This semester, we’ve already hosted the All Night Play Festival in a new socially-distanced format, and we are in the process of workshopping a student playwright’s piece for production next semester. By donating $25, you are helping us continue to provide spaces for young artists to experiment and create new art!
Another prominent element of our mission is providing chances for artists to explore. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, we’ve been given the opportunity to pursue a wider variety of production platforms, from Facebook live to Zoom. Finding innovative options isn’t new to Pipe Dreams, and we never say no to a challenge! Help us to carry on finding ways to enact our mission despite our current circumstances by donating $50 today!
The ending of the Pipe Dreams’ mission talks about “[challenging] audiences to question their own perceptions of art and its connection to the human experience”. We can’t accomplish what may be the most important part of our mission without one thing: the audience. Engagement is a vital part of any theatre company, and the Pipe Dreams company is tasked with finding new ways to engage audience members. Even in our current circumstances, our company has hosted New Works readings over zoom, been able to engage over a thousand artists and audience members with our All Night Play Festival, and we’ve even been able to produce our very first digital piece, Stranded. Help us continue to create art that engages and challenges artists by donating $100 today!
