Superhero Clubhouse (producer) Superhero Clubhouse is a sustainable collective of theater artists and environmental advocates. We believe that individuals possess the power to make positive change, and consider those working for the betterment of the earth to be heroes of our time. We make original eco-plays via a collaborative, green and rigorous process. Through the creation of allegorical mythologies, experiments in storytelling and science inspired events, we work to ignite environmental conversations among audiences and communities in order to revolutionize theater and save the world.www.superheroclubhouse.org
Tucked away in the old Archive Building in Greenwich Village NYC, IRT is a grassroots theater development laboratory providing space, support and community for independent artists.
