We're Back!
Remember Out of Box Theatre? We closed our doors five years ago, a casualty of the pandemic, but like a story with an unexpected twist, we're writing a new act. We said the lobby lights would flash again, and we’re thrilled to announce that the intermission is over! Out of Box Theatre is returning, not in our old space, but with a nomadic spirit, ready to pop up in different locations and bring our unique brand of theatre to you once again.
We are known for our bold, innovative, and thought-provoking productions. The pandemic forced us to pause, but it also gave us time to reflect on our mission and reimagine how we connect with our community. We’re not just returning; we’re evolving, and doubling down on our commitment to producing excellent theatre that ignites conversation and sparks a whole lot of joy!
One of the things you have always loved is the intimate setting we create, where they feel fully immersed in the story. Moving from our longtime Marietta location allows us to embrace a more nomadic model, seeking out venues that resonate with the specific needs of each production. This “Out of Box” approach will allow for greater artistic flexibility and the chance to engage with diverse audiences across the region. We're looking for venues that are as dynamic and unconventional as our productions, spaces that reflect the diverse and vibrant Atlanta arts community we serve. Think pop-up performances, unexpected locations… The possibilities are endless! But one thing will remain constant: our commitment to creating an intimate and engaging experience for every audience member.
One such exciting opportunity is developing a collaboration of space with the esteemed Georgia Ensemble Theatre, which recently moved into its new home at Act 3 Playhouse in Sandy Springs. Their new space at Act 3 is fantastic, and we're eager to explore the possibilities of working there. This collaboration aligns perfectly with our vision of partnering with other arts organizations and expanding our reach.
We are so excited to bring our first production to the GET space! It is the return of Trash Day, by local playwright and author Dave Lauby. We opened our second season with this one back in 2014 and we know it will be one that you will love! Side effects may include: Laughter, tears, and an overwhelming desire to organize your home.
Keep an eye on our website www.outofboxtheatre and social media for more information, including auditions, announcements about our upcoming season, locations, and productions. We can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on, and to create new memories together.
The play is about to begin again. We can't wait to see you there.
CHECK OUT "TRASH DAY" (See the Buzz's Review of the 2014 Production HERE)
