From Lebanese hakawati storytelling to the history held in a single thread of cloth, these five artists prove that heritage is not something we leave behind. It’s something we carry, transform, and hand forward.

In an age where a machine can make music in seconds, Érick Ismael bets everything on the one thing it can’t do: show up and perform, live, in front of someone. A singer, actor, director, and filmmaker, and the vocalist of progressive metal project Gnosys.
tomorrow on Skene.

Let me tell you something nobody prepares you for. When you move to another country to make art, everything you built before you arrived can vanish overnight.
Happy Monday!

Maybe you're new to theatre, or maybe you're just curious. But do you actually know what happens during tech week? It's one of the strangest, most intense stretches of making a show, and most audiences have no idea it exists.

Shuyang Zhou builds worlds that exist only for a moment. For the opera Ballymore, in a theatre with no fly system and almost no wing space, she built a house into the back of a mountain, then rotated the whole thing 180 degrees.

"Uno no tiene que ser nada más que quien uno es para estar bien."
Roberto Mosqueda convirtió su obra La Leyenda del Ermitaño en un viaje para descubrir sus propios poderes, sin tener que encajar en ningún molde.

"Todo este tiempo que creí que no era suficiente para el teatro, no era yo."
Roberto Mosqueda habla sin filtros sobre el síndrome del impostor, el talento, y todo lo que hay alrededor que te hace dudar de tu lugar.
Este miércoles en OFFSTAGE.

You know the Leeroy Jenkins type: the one who charges in, ignores the plan, and blows up the whole team. Props master Jay Duckworth, the Proptologist, has worked with a few.

Last time we built the portfolio. Now the part almost everyone skips: actually getting it seen. Because your portfolio is not the whole thing. It's the tip of the iceberg.
You get it in front of people two ways: you go to them, and you go where they're already looking.
Sunshine De Castro says her name was the first sign. She came to lighting design sideways, through acting, through crew work, through the moment she watched a scene bloom as color wrapped around it.

Sunshine De Castro came to lighting design sideways, through acting, through crew work, through the moment a scene bloomed as color wrapped around it. She chases the invisible: light that moves with the story.
tomorrow on Skene.
