WHO WE ARE

Lookup Theatre’s artistic form is storytelling, expressed through contemporary circus arts and theatre. It’s creative non-fiction – we tell true stories with imagination and originality, using movement, text and metaphor to recount real events with sophisticated spectacle. Lookup creates transformative experiences for participants and audiences through process, community and performance. Lookup Theatre was created in 2009 and has been a charitable organization since 2010.
