Action Series is an annual experimental performance series featuring members of the Goodyear Artist Collective and special guests. Performers are challenged to take risks, whether that means sharing creative process live, collaborating with someone new, or choosing to perform in an unconventional performance space.

Over the past three years, Action Series events have featured over 150 local artists (musicians, poets, choreographers, costume designers, and filmmakers) sharing aspects of their practice and giving audiences insight into how they research and develop performance. We’ve seen music-poetry collaborations, theater artists experimenting with dance composition, autobiographical lecture-demonstrations on pressing social issues, and fantastic dance costumes by visual artists. We’ve also seen guest performances by up-and-coming students from local universities as well as from friends working at Stewart/Owen Dance (Asheville, NC), SAXYN Dance Works (NYC), and the MET Opera Ballet (NYC).

The 2026 Action Series will take place March 20 – 28.
