Pig Iron Theatre Company Launches Its School

Posted by Nicole Steinberg | October 14, 2011

Fresh off the heels of their production of Twelfth Night at this year’s Live Arts Festival, Pig Iron Theatre has officially embarked on a new chapter in their history as a game-changing, experimental theater company. This week marked the launch of the Pig Iron School for Advanced Performance Training (APT), a rigorous post-graduate program for those who want to learn the company’s methods for creating avant-garde ensemble theater. The school’s website describes the new institution, supported by a 2010 Cultural Management grant from The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage, as “a center of creation—dynamic, energetic, messy, collaborative and ever-evolving, composed of forward-thinking theater-makers with a desire to forge new boundaries of what live performance can be.”
