• The Radical Evolution Street Theatre Crew was founded in Oct 2023 by a group of theater makers who participated in a two-week exchange with the historic, New Delhi-based street theater company Jana Natya Manch (aka Janam). Collectively we are a multidisciplinary crew who are writers, musicians, choreographers, producers, community organizers and more. We make work in support of left and progressive social movements in NYC and beyond.
