STAMPEDE LAB- a curated evening of indie theatre works
Every other Tuesday through Nov. 2012, Aimee's theatre company Elephant Run District hosted Stampede Lab, a curated evening of indie theater works, where artists from Off Off’s heritage mix with the people making it happen today. The original Stampede Labs were held in the historic Living Theatre, at 21 Clinton Street.
The tradition continues at various locations throughout New York, celebrating the best of Indie Theatre as it is happening today.
3 downtown theater companies each present up to 15 minutes of soon-to-be produced pieces. Smart, daring, funny, challenging, raw and focused. In between there will be short interviews, conversations and trivia. No lame talk-backs, no excruciating soap boxes and no rambling work.
