This is Pathetic is 16 years old. We started with a specialization in mime and puppetry. Over the last few years we have shifted our focus to social satire through sketches, improv, and film. We are greatly benefited by the membership of our two resident designers and our cinematographer. We have been fortunate enough to study under Del Close, Davis Robinson, Paula Langton, Jeff Wirth, Kristen Linklater, Vera Biato-Smith, and Randy Huntsbury.

We are planning on touring this summer and are looking looking for other troupes and theaters to host us and to work with. Contact us at our e-mail address for further information.
