Wise Fool New Mexico is a nonprofit theatre arts project created and staffed by four women artists of diverse backgrounds (Hispanic, Native, Anglo and Jewish) who are dedicated to art as a means of changing our world. We believe in the power of laughter to heal; of celebration to strengthen community; and of art to build bridges.
In the folk traditions of storytelling, puppetry, circus arts and public spectacle, we create accessible, highly visual and participatory performances and lead hands on workshops. We encourage dialogue and cooperation through shared creative process, using imagery, music and theatre arts to empower people to become larger than life, speak out, listen and find common ground.
For over 11 years Wise Fool has been creating original works for theatres, schools, libraries and parks to rave reviews and sell out audiences.
