Treehouse Shakers

Treehouse Shakers’ (THS) mission is to create original dance-plays, workshops and artistic experiences that encourage multi-generational audiences to create a greater connection to their community. Since our 1997 NYC founding, we have created 20 original works that explore narrative styles through universal themes. Our roster addresses every age level within youth programming, from babies to teens. Helping solidify our role in the American theater scene, we were the first U.S. company to tour a dance-play specifically for babies, Hatched, in 2012. We remain one of the few companies making work for the Very Early Years. Our work is sometimes the first performance many young people experience. With each new performance, we aim to set the artistic bar higher, challenging our artistic process and the thinking of young audiences.
