Orkater (a combination of the Dutch words for orchestra and theatre) pioneers an engaging new form of music-theatre, innovating the conventions of the stage with a distinct visual language. Under the imaginative direction of Ria Marks and Titus Tiel Groenestege, Orkater places no limitations on its work, and performances can take place in theatres, museums, or outdoors.
The New School has long been a place where artists have come to grow. Under the guidance of Stella Adler and Lee Strasberg, this is where some of the most influential voices in drama found their footing, including Tennessee Williams and Marlon Brando. The New School continues to forge the next generation of great dramatic storytellers, giving young artists the skills they need to make themselves heard.
