Friday Feature: Lucas Gajewski
Lucas has done nearly every possible thing with Introspect. He's been on crew, a lighting designer, graphic artist, main problem solver, performer in both our mainstage and playwright workshop, and now he'll be adding director to that list. Since Lucas has accomplished so much with not only Introspect, but in theatre in the community, and through various community service endeavors, he was the natural choice when it came to to figuring out our staff for Window Pains. We are positive that Lucas' leadership and talent will drive Window Pains to great success, and can't wait to see the final outcome. more...

World Peace
I remember when I was a little girl, and my godfather was fighting in Iraq, and on my Christmas list, the first thing I put was "George to come home," and "world peace."
Even at a young age, I was obsessed with everyone loving one another and getting along. But as I get older, I realize that this is next to impossible. Everything I learn in school, and see on the news, shows me that ignorance and intolerance plagues every country in the world. There is absolutely nothing that can take these things away. more...

This past summer we were so fortunate to our amazing guest artist, Kyle Pingel, work with us designing costumes for #ThrowAwayYourTelevision.

This weekend his designs can be seen in The Northeastern Dance Organization's production of "The Nutcracker". If you're in the Green Bay be sure to check it out. More info available here. more...

Friday Feature: Griswald
Taylor, Jeremy and Mike (pictured left to right in their picture) are not only some of our favorite alumni, but they also are part of a fantastic new band, Griswald. These guys have been a driving force in the Introspect Band the past 4 years; amazing musicians who can always make anyone (even our often stressed Artistic Director, Lindsay) laugh at a moment's notice. We couldn't be more proud and happy for these guys, and can't imagine three better people to have such great new opportunities coming their way. Their EP, Hearsay and Lore, is released December 2nd, and if you happen to be in Madison this weekend you can catch them Friday evening at The Sett at Union South at 9pm. More information can be found at their Facebook page, Griswald (go 'like' them now!), and their EP can be downloaded starting this Sunday at http://www.soundcloud.com/griswaldmusic. more...
Friday Feature: Joey Hart

What Introspect means to me...
Hello, my name is Taylor May. I've been part of Introspect, specifically the band, for three of the four years. I wouldn't trade my time with the company for anything in the world.
I've spent the last three summers working so closely with such talented people. Introspect has made me a better performer, but also has made me a better person. It's helped me build confidence in myself, in my performing, and has also helped me see what voices can do when they speak out. more...

Writing and Theatre
Writing and theatre for me go hand in hand. They are the peanut butter and jelly of my existence; the infallible combo that is not the same without the other. What would Art Garfunkel be without Paul Simon's writing? Was Paul ever the same without Art's harmonies? more...

I refuse to believe I'm part of a lost generation...
For my entire life, I have had faith in the one thing that has truly made me happy: dance. I, just as many others, bend myself around emotion and speak my mind through the art of dance. That's why, when I was given the opportunity to audition for a new, growing dance company before the summer of 2009, Introspect, I jumped at the chance. Little did I know that my involvement in the company would more...
