Know a Theatre
"I think that the combination of intellectual, research-based playmaking with highly stylized and precise movement is, while certainly not unheard of, not where most companies live."
– Aaron Henne

Now on The Dybbukast: "La Celestina"
In this Illuminated Lecture, Professor Barbara Fuchs, Distinguished Professor of Spanish and English at UCLA and director of Diversifying the Classics, addresses La Celestina, a text written in Spain at the turn of the sixteenth century, soon after the expulsion of the Jews. La Celestina asks radically uncomfortable questions of its society and our own: what do we owe each other, especially across lines of class or gender? How do we make room for ourselves in a place where we may not be welcome? In a time of profound dislocation, how do we find meaning in the world?
This episode was recorded as a live presentation on April 30, 2026 at The Philosophical Research Society in Los Angeles.

Dracula (Annotated)
currently touring
The year is 1897. The British Empire is in the midst of its imperialist expansion. Major technological advances are occurring, with the first wireless communication being sent across open sea. The women’s suffrage movement is growing and the “new woman” is emerging. Eastern European Jewish immigrants are making their way to England in large numbers. And Bram Stoker's novel Dracula is published; this story of a Transylvanian vampire who invades England captures the popular imagination for generations to come.
In Dracula (Annotated), theatre dybbuk excavates Bram Stoker’s famous tale, using a unique blend of historical investigation and heightened theatricality to weave together the gothic characters and plot of Dracula with references to societal forces at play in Victorian England that are still timely today.
