SUSTAINABLE PROCESS
Dirty Gold creates dynamic, provocative, character-based theatre that comments on contemporary society and our shared humanity. We foster a diverse community of artists by providing opportunities for exploration and development. We infuse every aspect of our creative process with a unique focus on mindfulness and the well-being of our artists, resulting in sustainable, intentional, and elevated theatre.
HOW IT ALL STARTED
Rebecca Greaves & Roy Lazovitz realized early on in their friendship that they had a shared love of theatre despite coming from very different creative backgrounds. At the time they met, Rebecca was getting her Yoga Teacher Training certification and trying to figure out how to combine her more traditional acting background with her yoga teachings to create more sustainable theatre. Roy, on the other hand, was coming from comedy and sketch scenes as a writer and director and was seeking a creative community in the theatre world that lasted beyond individual productions.
Rebecca and Roy gravitated toward shows with small casts where the characters felt like real people discussing topics that were challenging but honest. After working together on a play where Roy wrote and directed, and Rebecca performed, they realized they also liked to create theatre in the same way - with care and attention to the artist's well-being throughout the process. They combined forces to bring their unique skills together to create a theatre company based on mindfulness, community, sustainability, and theatre that reflects our shared humanity.
