Attack Theatre Dancers Dash

Founded in 1994 by Michele de la Reza and Peter Kope as a collaboration between two dancers and a city, Attack Theatre fuses modern dance, original live music, and interdisciplinary art forms to create engaging dance performances. We create work at the intersection of art and community, resulting in productions that are personal, authentic, welcoming, and fearless.

MISSION
Attack Theatre builds community with artists and audiences through the process and production of personal, accessible dance-based performance. Blending varied art forms with dynamic contemporary dance, Attack Theatre creates passionate portrayals of everyday life.

VISION
Through inherently collaborative and deliberately inter-dependent artistic and educational programs, Attack Theatre will continue to demonstrate its uniquely integrated approach to art and living to connect communities, artists and audiences in Pittsburgh and around the world.
