About foolsFURY Theater Company
FoolsFURY enlightens and inspires the human spirit through vital, thought-provoking theater and theater training. We tell timeless stories in startling, unexpected ways, rich with excitement awe and outrage. FoolsFURY is a San Francisco-based theater ensemble, founded in 1998 by Ben Yalom and a group of artists eager to revitalize the role of theater in America as a form of accessible and diverse artistic expression. We innovate constantly, focusing on inspired uses of the body in creating narrative, and offering visceral experiences for our audiences that cannot be replicated on film or television. Our works include original plays, contemporary works that lend themselves to deep exploration, and classics of world theater the we de- then re- construct. We see theater as the nexus of many art forms, and collaborate with fantastic artists from many disciplines. In addition to creating and touring new works, we curate and produce the biennial FURY Factory Festival, a national three-week festival of cutting edge works created by ensemble theater companies. We are also fiercely dedicated to training for adults and youth, and provide courses in contemporary theater technique. These empower our students as theater makers, artists and creative, empathetic individuals. For adults we offer regular workshops taught by the foolsFURY ensemble or by notable master teachers such as Anne Bogart's SITI Company, Mary Overlie of the NYU Experimental Theater Wing, and Stephen Wangh. In recent years actors who have worked and trained with us have appeared on every major stage in the region, and many across the country.
