Shaking the Tree realizes how important it is for emerging theatre groups/artists to have access to space in the exploration and creation phase of a new work. In this program, we will provide a week long residency to an emerging theatre group/artist that includes access to rehearsal space, basic tech support, marketing, and a two-three night performance run of their workshopped piece. Shaking the Tree audiences will benefit by attending this free event and learn about exciting emerging theatre/performance groups in the community.
