WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID:

"The training was relentless, musical, wildly imaginative, exhausting, exhilarating, whimsical, spiritual, uncompromising.”"
David Chambers, Professor Yale School of Drama

"Double Edge Theatre's artistic vision encourages people to wake up, in every sense, with their brains and bodies and spirits. Within this company, there is a space for self-exploration and expression unequaled in any other theatre."
Seth Bockley, Performer/Director/Writer, Chicago


"With Double Edge's unique approach and mastery, we came away with an increased grasp of our own artistry. I know of no other place or people so consistently able to spur such amazing growth."

Rich VanSchowen, Artisitc Director, q-staff theatre, Albuquerque

"When I experienced this process the first time, I felt alive as never before. There was a surge of energy which did not only extend to physical abilities, but to other areas as well - how I related to others, how some loose ends in my creative work might come together. There was an invigoration on all levels."
Susannah Schaup, Writer, Performer, Vienna, Austria
