Wide Eyed was founded by Liz White, Kristin Skye Hoffmann, and Sky Seals, all graduates of University of Northern Colorado’s' performing arts program.  After a few years in New York City the three realized that they were literally surrounded by hundreds of talented people, most of them their friends.  Everything to make a good company was already there just waiting for someone to take action. The thought had been tossed around more than once, but it was after a successful run of Medea with Hudson Shakespeare Company with a cast of all friends and pure talent that Wide Eyed came to fruition.  The birth was all at once painful and miraculous. We want Wide Eyed to be a platform for talented people to be recognized, and where quality productions are abound. 

Wide Eyed Productions is a New York City-based collective of artists dedicated to the pursuit of excellence in risk-taking, relevant theatre. Our core ensemble is committed to the birth of new works and also the rebirth of the classic texts. Through our collaborative process Wide Eyed discovers and creates theatre that both stimulates the imagination and awakens the public's passion for high standards in the performing arts.
