SPONSORED BY NOBODY is a Brooklyn-based theatre company dedicated to developing original work that is relevant to contemporary American culture. Founded in 2005, SPONSORED BY NOBODY has developed seven critically-acclaimed, original works of theatre -- including The Position [Ice Factory ’05], not from canada [FringeNYC ’07] and W.M.D. (just the low points) at Ice Factory ’08 (NYC) and The Game Is Up! at the Vooruit Arts Center (Ghent, Belgium). The company has earned a reputation in New York and Europe for presenting abrasive theatre committed to the idea of art as a catalyst for social change. While rooted in theatre, the company incorporates multiple disciplines — borrowing from dance, film, music, and installation art — while employing found-texts and original writing to reflect contemporary realities in our culture. SPONSORED BY NOBODY is committed to a collaborative development process and operates with a sense of urgency on each project. The company remains under the leadership of Artistic Director, Kevin Doyle; Company Members Scott Miller, Paul Newport, Sean O’Hagan, Brendan Regimbal, Jessa Wildemeersch and Sarah Stephens.
We are developing our newest work Behind The Bullseye, prior to its world premiere at the Ontological-Hysteric Theater's INCUBATOR program (July 1-11, 2009). The play fuses elements of journalism, film, music and installation art to examine the shopping habits of Brooklyn residents from diverse ethnic and class backgrounds.
