Boundary-breaking, transformative, interdisciplinary storytelling
turn sound on
What We Do
We are guiding people of all ages pushing the boundaries in art, creativity and imagination. We are offering one-of-a kind, boundary breaking, interdisciplinary classes for children and adults in separate and mixed classrooms.
Our Approach
Simply put:
"The goal is not a great story. The goal is connection."
Inspiration over instruction.
Questions over answers.
Ideas over mediums.
Why Storytelling?
As children we used stories to bridge imagination and reality.
Today we use them to make sense of our world and to share that understanding with others.
Storytelling helps us see things in a new light and believe in possibility, recommit to our vision, and inspire us to act.
We break the boundaries between mediums. We have them under one roof: storytelling.
We create connections. Art, science, ideas, people, communities, understandings and more.
We want to create change. Lasting change.

![When we fear failing, we are not only afraid of material cost, we are afraid of humiliation. And what humiliation comes down to often is a way of telling the story of failure. A tragedy is a particular way of telling a story of failure. What is distinctive about tragedy is that the way a story is narrated means that members of the audience typically end up extremely sympathetic towards the failed person. They would never want to call them a loser. That’s not how we think of Hamlet, Madame Bovary or Anna Karenina. We call them something nobler and more admirable: a tragic hero. Tragedy initiates us into a fascinating new concept: the noble failure. But we don’t usually tell stories of failure like this. Usually, in our society, we tell them via a genre utterly opposed to the subtlety of tragedy - namely, the media. Imagine if some of the greatest stories of tragedy were handled by the media: Othello: Love-Crazed Immigrant Kills Senator’s Daughter
Mamade Bovary: Shopaholic Adulteress Swallows Arsenic After Credit Fraud
Oedipus: Sex With Mum Was Blinding!
