Tisch New Theatre has invited a diverse range of artists to come together and explore one topic: identity. What is identity and what does it mean to you? TNT Offstage attempts to answer these questions through music about who we are as artists and simply as individuals. In a world where theatre as we know it seems so far away, TNT Offstage begins to rewrite our rules: through these songs, we hope to redefine what narratives are brought to our stages and begin to shine a spotlight on those stories too often left untold.

We had spent so long without stepping into a theatre and we wanted to show that, while it was hard, the light had to keep going. We wanted to give an homage to all the lit ghostlights around the world, while keeping the environment simple, letting the words and music shine bright.
