Experience Theatre of the Mind with Soundstage Productions

What is Theatre of the Mind? Theatre of the Mind emphasizes the actor as story teller, and the actor's voice as the first instrument. As our company performs the text of our story, we ask that you participate by engaging your imagination as we take you into the playwright's world.

Soundstage is the only professional reader's theatre in the Midwest, if not the country. It is, indeed, "Reader's Theatre on Steroids". Our fine art work and technical work will aid and enhance your experience. In the golden days of radio, audience members gathered around their glowing Philco sets to hear the great story tellers of their time tell the great stories.

So, please, join us and unleash your imagination for an evening of truly unique theatre ... The "house is open" for Theatre of the Mind!

This is your brain. This is your brain on theatre. Experience Theatre of the Mind.

Our Biography series will be a showcase of fully realized one-actor shows, beginning with "The Belle of Amherst". This is the funny, moving, and entertaining story of one of America's finest poets, Emily Dickenson. We like to think of this series as "One Actor; One Life"!

Our Revival series includes past reader's theatre productions, now presented as fully staged shows. These will revive our finest hours of theatre, adding more texture and spice. We begin this series with the 2010 revival of Cormac McCarthy's "The Sunset Limited".
