About

Dive In Productions

 

dive in productions began in the spring of 2014 as a place for artists to grow and explore.

Dive In Productions is a learning-based theatre company dedicated to fostering creativity, community, and artistic growth through performance and education. Founded in the spring of 2014 by Marina Altschiller-Gannon while attending Emerson College, Dive In was created to ensure that anyone with a passion for theatre could continue to participate, regardless of major. That idea remains central to the company’s mission: providing artists of all experience levels with a safe, supportive environment in which to learn and grow.

Since its inception, beginning with the Boston premiere of The Upside of Being Down by Miles Burns, Dive In has remained committed to supporting emerging playwrights, directors, performers, and technicians. In 2016, the company relocated to the New Hampshire Seacoast, where it has continued to evolve, expand, and take creative risks.

Over the years, Dive In Productions has grown both artistically and organizationally while holding fast to its core belief that theatre should be accessible, welcoming, and empowering for all. Through workshop productions, premieres of new work, cabarets, educational programs, and mainstage productions, Dive In invites artists and audiences alike to dive in and try something new.

At its heart, Dive In is a community where every artist, whether a seasoned professional or stepping onto the stage for the first time, has a place to experiment, collaborate, and grow.
