A Season Without Audiences
During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, PEAK embarked on capturing a series of performances on the stage of the Alexander Kasser Theater. PEAK Performances invited artists back into its theater to develop new works and stage full productions without live audiences. Giving the artists creative freedom and the rare opportunity to work in physical theater space at a moment when other avenues of work and livelihood were on hold. PEAK Plus makes these captures available to audiences for free.
