Sandbox Theatre

Since 2004, Sandbox is a collective of multidisciplinary artists who, along with an ever-expanding circle of collaborators, are driven to create new plays from scratch, and to lift up our communities by creating the worlds we want to see.

This year we explored softness and chaos in Light My Way, brought artists together to train in aerial storytelling, and got back in the classroom teaching all this madness to high schoolers. 

We move forward together, because it matters when stories are not controlled by one voice but are an overflow of all of us.

From the community- 

Sandbox is:

Sandbox is "a true collaboration, a rich experience that allowed me time to dream. Such a luxury." 

-Designer

Sandbox is "growing into a new relationship with my own faith in my own body. Thank you for this opportunity. It feels like electricity." 

-Workshop Participant

Sandbox is "a playground for adults. This is the type of intentional community I've been looking for "

 -Workshop Participant

Sandbox is "a freaking feast for the eyeballs" 

-Audience Member

Sandbox is “where I can let the truly weird parts of my imagination and creativity come out to play.”

 -Collaborating Artist

Sandbox is possibility. Sandbox is a place that grows.  

-Company Member

Sandbox is "one of the most connected / safe and good feeling spaces I've been in. I see all the work you are all doing to make it welcoming and accessible." 

-Workshop Participant

Sandbox is where you and some people that you may or may not know throw all your toys into the sandbox, then jump in and start sharing them and using them in different ways. After a few weeks or months, you come up with a polished routine on your newly built jungle gym and invite your friends over to watch.
