We're the Strangefellowes Collective, a little theater company messily birthing itself in Berkeley, California. We put on weird, fun shows in weird, fun ways. We don't like boundaries!
You're told there are boundaries where there are not, places you can't go, doors you can't open. Why can't you sing in line? Why can't a painting be a dance? Why can't theater happen anywhere? And hey, you paid good money for these seats -- why can't you heckle the performers?
We want to show our audiences that they are just as vital to our shows as anybody onstage, and to inspire them to enjoy and create theater in the same spirit. So if you want to participate -- that's attend, tech or act -- click How? to find out more!
As for who, exactly, we are, well...
Molly Stewart-Cohn
is production manager, lights guru and cat herder.
mstewartcohn@strangefellowes.com
Samuel Raskin
is business manager, sound seneschal and cynic.
sraskin@strangefellowes.com
Laura Rose
is literary manager, daredevil and scrounger-in-chief.
lrose@strangefellowes.com
Sam Nolting

NEWS
12 NOV: The show went gloriously! Thanks to everyone who helped our trembling first flight. Tune in soon to hear about our next project. Expect it to be far stranger, and possibly catered.
Old news...
12 OCT: Mark your sundials for DOG-EAR, the Strangefellowes' new, original play about readers, rebels and writing your own ending, with a scintillant high-school cast!
The library system has collapsed. Ian and Ell, two employees of the big-box bookseller, discover that the libraries' books are still in circulation -- in secret. They descend into a weird underground of well-read bikers, murderous Utilitarians and clandestine Bookmobiles, as the mystery draws them inevitably toward the last library in America, and the secret behind their world.
free admission!

How did you get a theater to perform this in?
Only through the saintlike perfection of the Willard Metal Shop Theater Project, which supports such noble causes. Thank you!
So come! Tell your friends! Support us, like you might support a baby bird you found in the street, its wing broken, covered with amniotic fluids.
