The Theatre of Others believes the play watches the audience.
The audience is necessary and they are witness to what happens.
We produce plays that both welcome and challenge the audience.
Upcoming Productions
Audio Play Festival 2024
The Theatre of Others’ fourth annual Audio Play Festival, will be produced for the entire month of October 2024. This year’s prompt is "SOUNDS OF HOME." We are seeking plays that explore this theme in ways that utilize the unique potentials of the audio play format. What does home mean to you and what does home sound like? What are the rhythms and cadences of speech? What does traffic sound like? What about nature? What do you hear when someone cooks a meal? Plays will be released weekly via The Theatre of Others Podcast on Apple, Spotify, Google, and all your favorite podcast platforms.

Submissions are open for The Theatre of Others’ fourth annual Audio New Play Festival which will premiere in October 2024.

Work with Others
Work with Others
Work with OTHERS is a free communal playwriting event, which will take place on Zoom the first weekend of each month. For more details about times, please see below.
What is it? The first two hours of each session will be spent writing in community over Zoom. Participants can come and go as they please. If you cannot be present for the entire session, you are welcome to arrive late or leave early. Writing can be an isolating endeavor. Work with OTHERS is an opportunity to set aside time each month to write alongside members of the Theatre of Others community all over the world.
The third and final hour of each session will be devoted to a group discussion about the art and practice of playwriting. Resident Playwright and Dramaturg Steven Gaultney will moderate the discussion, which will also feature a rotating cast of additional Theatre of Others company members. Any and all questions about the craft of playwriting are welcome and can be asked of Steven, other TOO company members, or put to the group as a whole.
Join us! And be an Other, too.

We believe that space is psychology and informs the ways in which an audience interacts and reacts to what is presented for them. We create uniquely theatrical events in bespoke sensory performance spaces crafted to encourage curiosity and grant the audience permission to commune with the play.
