Those pictured above represent the core participants of ParaTheatrical ReSearch; all have completed at least five labs (labs run at least once or twice a week for six to twelve weeks at a time). "ParaTheatrical ReSearch" is no club of card-carrying members nor are we a tribal identity or a business or an established theatre company. We are too rebellious to be a cult and I am no "guru". No fixed doctrine or dogma exists yet we do hold ourselves to specific work ethics. Autonomy and integrity, two core values in this work, guide our processes and attract kindred-others to what we are doing. -- Antero Alli, director
