Perpetual Motion Theatre Company

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Perpetual Motion Theatre Company is a small, independent performance company based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The group focuses on creating new, original work that is generated from within the company through a combination of group writing, improvisation and workshopping. The stated goal of Perpetual Motion is to utilize the visual elements of physically-based theater while still relying on characterization and plot to drive stories forward. The company's latest show,The Depth of the Ocean, became one of the most-reviewd, top-selling shows of the 2006 Minneapolis Fringe Festival.[1]
