our aesthetic

Bated Breath draws on classical and contemporary plays to produce unusual and experiential theatre that doesn’t follow the crowd. Our work is defined by the simple and the spectacular, sometimes utilizing site-specific spaces for performance. We bring the wonder to live theatre, encouraging audiences of all ages and backgrounds to enjoy and collaborate in a rare experience.
