Staging Film is an experimental cross-medium project. We are a community of theater-makers and filmmakers exploring new ways to tell theater stories with film. We meld the contemporary American stage and screen to create short translations rather than adaptations. This means experimenting with untraditional techniques in cinematography, set design, sound design, and performance to record the visceral magic of theater on camera. The result is something that does not fit neatly into a defined medium, but rather shines in the liminal space between. Staging Film’s pilot season was populated by great New York stage talent, including Tony Award nominee & two time Obie Award winner Leigh Silverman, Tony Award nominee & Obie Award winner Heidi Rodewald, Lilly Award winner Chisa Hutchinson, Obie Award winner Caridad Svich, Obie Award winner Black Eyed Susan, Ovation Award winner José Zayas, Alan Schneider Director Award winner Kimberly Senior, and many more!
