Rude Mechs

Arts In Context is a documentary series that features in-depth, cinematic looks into the lives of artists and their art. Winner of 10 Lone Star Emmy awards.

Rude Mechs

Season 5 Episode 4 | 26m 46s | CC

Since 1995, Rude Mechanicals have created original theatrical productions that represent a genre-defying cocktail of big ideas, cheap laughs, and dizzying spectacle. While fostering a truly collaborative environment – there are no individual leaders or directors – Rude Mechs has jumped into the national spotlight as one of the most innovative and subversive acting companies in the country.
