10/7/2022

COMPANY: the feath3r theory
JOB POSTING: Managing Director
POSTING DATE: October 2022
Application deadline: November 4th

About the feath3r theory
the feath3r theory (TF3T) is a New York City based dance-theatre-media company that produces the work of Artistic Director and Choreographer Raja Feather Kelly, founded in 2009. The number 3 in TF3T speaks to the equal importance of dance-theatre-media in the work. As a collaboration of dancers, actors, filmmakers, musicians, photographers, and designers, the mission of the feath3r theory is to broaden the space for unheard voices and repressed histories, to bring into the theater those sometimes left out, and to use theater to provoke much-needed public conversations. TF3T does this by challenging its audience and its creators to collectively interrogate - and celebrate - its shared relationship to human empathy and personal ethics as expressed in and distorted by popular media.
