Rorschach Theatre

Rorschach Theatre is known for using unusual places to create visceral theatrical productions. Few spaces are as unusual as their current location, a former Rochester Big and Tall Shop by Farragut North metro. Through August 2025, subscribe to "VOX POPULI: A Psychogeographies Project", a self-guided urban adventure culminating in a live performance. Rorschach current location is in downtown DC's Golden Triangle Business Improvement District, where on sidewalks throughout the area you can find poems by winners of this year's haiku contest!
