Dreamt into being in the mountains of Appalachia, where the company’s co-founders Benjamin Rexroad and Kyle Jozsa, completed a thru- hike of the 2,185.9 mile Appalachian Trail, Wandering Aesthetics rose, like an overused cliche, from the ashes of Heads Up Productions. Beginning the organization as an Akron-based storytelling company bent on exploring our American roots and identity through the lens of narrative, we endeavored to build community through person-to-person contact, connecting disparate “tribes” through our performances, investigating the human link in our diverse cultural heritage. *Dunamis Theatre* Dunamis Theatre is an alternative performance company with a priority to both cultivating new works and presenting published works in experimental form and or challenging in content. Our intent is to provide a theatrical experience through all genres of theatre focusing on high quality productions; to explore new ideas, provide education, and training to develop theatre artists in children and adults in Akron and the surrounding areas. The mission of Dunamis Theatre is to inspire, challenge, entertain, educate, and empower artists and audiences of all ages by igniting the spark within our own internal dynamite; provoking examination of our contemporary world. -- *Nici Romo* Managing Artistic Director Dunamis Theatre
