Insurgent Theatre strives to connect performing arts with radical struggles, to make theatre that is relevant, engaging, challenging and useful for those who confront the US police state and global capitalist empire. We've been making original theatre since 2003 and frequently touring the country since August, 2008. Insurgent was founded in Milwaukee, WI, but is now located in Columbus, OH.

We are still able to perform our hour long radical minimalist play about kidnapping delegates to the G20, with notice, on request and with enough reason to make re-rehearsing it worth our time.

A new play! If Ulysses' Crewmen was an exploration of just how powerless we are, First Image is an exploration of what we must become to be powerful. It will be three episodes, technically and visually elaborate, and in many other ways completely different from Ulysses' Crewmen.
