What's new?
Collaborative Theater Classes, Workshops and Performances
Building Company Theater was founded in 2012. Through our love of physical theater, mask, abstract and ensemble-based work, our theatre company serves as the leading theatre company of its kind in Syracuse, New York.
We work to create new theater pieces that challenge political, social and moral ideals. When we aren't creating, we can be found in the Syracuse community working within the schools, business, hospitals and more. Building Company members are dedicated to long - term artistic relationships with each other and the communities they live in.
Building Company Theater engages local communities in theatrical processes to enhance the quality of life and appreciation for the art form. The company researches and develops new ways of making theater and presents original works of theater, with a critical eye towards accepted social mores.
All are welcome to participate, no matter your level of experience. Our theater is meant for people to enjoy and benefit from.

We use the methods of theater artists like Augusto Boal and Viola Spolin in classes and workshops. Our theater techniques promote connection, acceptance, spontaneity, growth, mindfulness and resiliency. Our classes and workshops create joy and connection through the language of theater and improvisation. We use theater as a tool to help communities.
