Welcome to the cyberspace home of |

The
self-appointed "Popes" of theatre in America today are content
to be little more than baby-sitters for the upper-middle classes
churning out works that are increasingly tame, toothless, tepid, and
trivial.
Here at Subversive Theatre we believe in PEOPLES' THEATRE, theatre
with guts, theatre not devoted to reinforcing the status quo, but
tearing it to bits!
WELCOME TO THE REVOLUTION!!!!
"Daring,
direly necessary and unapologetic activist theater."
-- Colin Dabkowski, BUFFALO NEWS 4/15/08
"Don't expect calm
entertainment. Expect biting political commentary and an
out-of-the-ordinary show."
