WHO WE ARE

The Dogteam Theatre Project

The Dogteam Theatre Project creates fast, furious, and relevant theatrical engagements for diverse audiences, while providing transformative experiences for emerging and professional artists.

Dogteam engages established professional theatre makers with Middlebury College students in Vermont and New York City in a unique training/producing model that cycles over the course of two years, alternating a Building Summer with a Producing Summer. The activities of the Building Summer, in residence at Middlebury College, are anchored around script development and translation workshops for established playwrights, with professional directors, actors and designers also working with students whose areas of focus include playwriting, directing, design, producing, and arts management. Dogteam engages professionals in these diverse areas to provide students advanced training and mentorship.

​Producing Summers see the company rehearsing in VT then moving to NYC to present two productions in rep at Atlantic Stage 2.

Connection to Middlebury College

The Dogteam Theatre Project is associated with the Theatre Department at Middlebury College, which has a 35-year history of providing aspiring theatre artists the opportunity to work as peers alongside established theatre professionals. The Dogteam is a natural extension of the department’s praxis-heavy curriculum, offering advanced experiential learning options in all areas of theatre making.
