Our Mission

Apocalyptic Artists is an ensemble of multidisciplinary theatre makers committed to shaping the future of classical theatre, making it accessible for all.  

We produce new and innovative adaptations, honor artists with diverse identities and experiences, and provide inspirational programming for young people.

Our Story

Apocalyptic Artists was born out of a simple desire to serve the students in our community who were losing access to arts programming during the 2020 Covid-19 Pandemic. What began as online workshops paired with Zoom performances of Macbeth has grown beyond what we could have anticipated. By Summer 2025, we will have facilitated 620 workshops for 17 schools across the five boroughs; our films and live productions will have been seen by over 5,500 students.
