In the art that we produce, we enter into a process of creation. What we want to express, how we want to express it and the characters we are creating unfolds before us, revealing to us, in layers, that which leads to what we manifest and demonstrate in our theatrical productions. Upcoming Events
Who We AreDramaDogs is a multidisciplinary and project driven theater production company that celebrates the creative process of performance through collaborative dialogues between the director, performer, technical and administrative segments of each production or event. It is the intention of DramaDogs to develop theatrical pieces, training programs, and educational outreach activities to touch the human spirit.
DramaDogs recognizes that theater arts provide the environment for a rich creative and collaborative process. This process allows artists of various disciplines to work toward the inception, development, and production of theatrical pieces. These performances in turn enrich and entertain the artists and the audience at large. The company is concurrently dedicated to outreach programs and experiences for youth in public and private schools. Different from the autocratic director/producer artistic vision practiced by most professional companies, DramaDogs utilizes the self as the artist. It is the artists' experiences, in life and in rehearsal, that are the most viable creative tool toward performance. DramaDogs crafts challenging theatrical productions and workshops that provide opportunities for actors to explore and discover their own creativity through their personal experiences, discoveries and awareness. Within the collaboration and dialogue at production meetings, rehearsal and in the final performances, the director, designers, actors and technicians are involved on two levels. Their voiced ideas are heard and are then applied to the overall vision of the theater piece. The artists working together reveal and bring forward an artistic statement that potentially becomes art. Previous ProductionsKen Gilbert and E. Bonnie Lewis began their collaborative work in the theater in Pasadena during the summer and fall of 1991. Following several successful productions, DramaDogs was established in 1998 and registered as a non-profit in 2000. Continuing to work with and develop original material, DramaDogs stimulates and provokes personal and social responses from its audiences. Visage II
