Rising Sun Performance Company

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rising Sun Performance Company is an American theatre company in the Off-Off-Broadway community that is establishing a reputation for their talented ensemble of writers, directors, and actors featuring a strong selection of original works balanced by revivals of off-beat published works. Rising Sun brought New York City the acclaimed revivals of An Adult Evening of Shel Silverstein & The Shape of Things which was nominated for two New York Innovative Theatre Awards[1] and most recently the critically acclaimed smash hit Hellcab which played for 10 weeks to sold out audiences. They are also the producers of the annual Aristophanes festival in Central Park which has featured Jason Tyne's adaptations of Lysistrata and The Frogs.[1]
