BetweenTheLines Theatre is devoted to telling stories that are true to us today.
In the via-negative tradition of Jerzy Grotowski and Tadashi Suzuki, BetweenTheLines posits that all is required for a theatrical act to occur is an actor and a spectator. Thus, primarily concerned with what transpires in the sacred space between the two, BetweenTheLines seeks to reify listening, deepen our understanding of one another, and awake what is neglected by producing unapologetically challenging, fundamentally theatrical plays. Creating a balance between brand new, never produced scripts with critically-acclaimed contemporary plays, BetweenTheLines is able to continually take risks, as well as bring a dynamic selection of shows to the Missoula community. BetweenTheLines connects with our rapidly changing global culture through the transmission of ideas and creative modalities with other theatre companies and artists worldwide in order to keep our finger on the pulse of performance practices. It is in this way that the company endeavor to educate, inspire, and awaken soul in our collaborators and audiences alike.
