Dancing Monkey Laboratories is a performance collective lead by scientists Mike Czuba, Melissa Tuplin, Nathaniel Schmidt, Leon Schwesinger and Larry Lamont. We are interested in researching, exploring, discovering and deconstructing what (T)heatre can be by creating new works that speak to diverse audiences. Dancing Monkey believes in experimentation without alienation – creating theatrical experiences that offer universal content, challenging aesthetics, while building bridges into other artistic communities and towards new audiences. Founded in Montreal, Quebec, Dancing Monkey now also has a laboratory in Calgary, Alberta.

Creating new forms, such as the “Night Play”, Dancing Monkey Laboratories is pleased to be following in the footsteps and dreams of our Nocturlogical predecessors. If you have to ask if something exists, it already does, if it is all lies, it is also completely true – Nocturlogically speaking.

New Album from Nathaniel Schmidt and David Burnett

Music from KARL NIMENI

Nathaniel Schmidt’s Debut Album ‘SATELLITES’ Now Available on Itunes

Mike Czuba’s play ‘I AM I’ is available @ Original Works Publishing.

"The characters in Mike Czuba’s new tragi-comedy “I AM I” may state in frustration that they hate postmodernism, but the show owns its very appeal to this fragmented, and yet strangely cohesive genius of narrative." Lucian Tion, Amsterdam Fringe - 2013
