Over the last year, theater companies have innovated radically to adapt to a new landscape brought on by COVID-19, several turning to digital platforms to produce their work, and some taking a different route. Artistic Stamp, a new theater company headed by Drama League alumni West Hyler and Shelley Butler, is using handwritten correspondence to connect audiences with their artists through the postal service, creating an intimate and interactive theatrical journey told through a series of letters sent directly to your mailbox. In this week’s episode, The Drama League’s Artistic Director Gabriel Stelian-Shanks joins the two Artistic Stamp co-creators to discuss the new theater company’s revolutionary approach to storytelling and how it’s breaking the mold for immersive theatrical experiences one letter at a time.
