Mission:
We’d like to acknowledge that in this day and age, theatre is a little bit weird.

We would like to use this weirdness for greater things.

It’s important to Nebunele to emphasize the advantages theatre has that other excellent storytelling mediums, like film and television and books, lack. For us, this means embracing, rather than bemoaning, the small audience venues that have become our home over the years. The live, intimate, in-person nature of a small theatre experience is what makes theatre distinct. We live in an increasingly virtual time; we have to cultivate the human gathering, make it intentional and important. We strive to achieve a close interaction with our audiences.

We think of theatre as a public forum, a place to discuss the human condition whilst sharing that condition with the fellow humans present. Our intention is to increase the amount of empathy in the world, the understanding of human nature, in public, side by side. We're fighting the lonely machine, the cyber cubicle, with our weirdness.

Theatre has to be the kid that says "Yeah, I know I wear glasses and you can get eye surgery now, but did you know that when I look at the blurry world I can see the future, I can see the color of thoughts, and the hue of resolution. You focus, I'll dream."

What does "Nebunele" mean?
Nebunele is a Romanian word that translates, literally, to mean "little crazies." It is used to describe the little red berries that one should not eat, and can be used metaphorically to mean "crazy little women" or even "crazy little stories.
