OUR MISSION
CAHOOT?! Physical Theatre aims to subvert economic, geographic, and social boundaries by making innovative theatre available to everyone.
We desire to challenge artistic expectations and to spark conversations. We seek to create work that is subversive, evocative, persistent, fluid, thrilling, unabashed, colorful, empathetic, and alive — curiously strange, remarkably human.
CAHOOT?! Physical Theatre was established in 2018 by 5 performers and artists from across the country and beyond. Co-founders Jacob Snyder Timmons (North Carolina), Emilia Björk Perkins (Sweden), Chase Perkins (New Hampshire), Graham Casper Haught (California), and Eric William Jones (Wisconsin) met and began dreaming of this ensemble while studying together at Dell'Arte International School of Physical Theatre, the premier institute for physical theatre in the world. All five artists spent three years honing their craft and began to devise wholly original work.
At the core of our mission is a radical idea: theatre (and art) should be available to everyone. Our goal is to create high-quality productions available to the public in the community and without a price tag. By doing this, we hope to break down the barriers of location, income, and class to bring innovative theatre to everyone.
