A different kind of travel agency...
OUR MISSION.
Trainwreck Productions (TWP) aspires to produce the best damn found-space theatre and to promote young theatre artists in Dubuque, IA.
HISTORY.
Trainwreck Productions began in 2008, founded by Ryan Decker with Anna Troy, Paige Triervieler, Mary Zanger, and Sarah Szeibel. Opening its first production in May 2009, the company's mission was to provide young theatre craftsmen an outlet to create avant-garde theatre, take risks... and screw-up!
Since then, TWP's mission has focused to found-space and original productions. Among others, past disasters include: the cinema-stage hybrid of Joss Whedon's Dr. Horribles Sing-Along Blog; Edward Albee's absurd The Zoo Story; a "hipster" Importance of Being Earnest; and the premiere of original local scripts in our 24-Hour Theatre Project and Fresh Ink productions.
Trainwreck Productions became an affiliate program of the Dubuque County Fine Arts Society in 2013.
