About

Gnap! Theater Projects presents and produces theatrical events that are both deliberately experimental and unashamedly populist, often utilizing modes of theater making that are artistically unfashionable and obsolete, including improvisation, short sketches, site specific performance art, and historical re-envisioning. Gnap! Theater Projects is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of ways of making narrative function in a theatrical setting. Gnap! Theater Projects work is intended for experienced theater audiences and theater-going novices alike.

We have been producing events since 2001. We started with No Shame Theatre, which ran at the Hideout from April 2001 through October 2005. We have produced plays (The Eight), improv festivals (Out of Bounds, 2005-2008), endurance events (Snakes on Day, 2006), and have produced shows by improv groups (Get Up, 2005-Present; Saturday Night Special, 2008-Present).
