Storytelling - Something Just Out of Sight: PigPen Theatre Company at TEDxColumbiaSIPA

PigPen Theatre Company has captured the imagination of critics and audiences alike since they were introduced to the New York stage in 2010 as undergraduate students from the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama. Since then, the group has gone on to become the first company in history to win the New York City International Fringe Festival's highest honor for a play two years running (2010 and 2011). PigPen Theatre Company has also produced several original plays off-Broadway, earning them critic's picks from The New York Times, Time Out New York, and New York Magazine, which ranked them in the top ten theatrical events of both 2011 and 2012.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
