What is live action theatre?

Live Action Theatre (LAT) was founded in 2013 by stage combat professionals Chris Niebling, Kyle Encinas and Amie Root. The company was formed with the goal of creating theatre that not only injects high octane action directly into the audience experience, but also theatre that shows such a high level proficiency in the art of staged violence storytelling that it serves to heighten and expand the narrative.

LAT strives to put audiences on the edge of their seats with works ranging from action-adventure to visceral slasher stories, and all the contemporary violence in between. From the beauty of martial arts, to the anathema of personal violence, fights are always treated as an intrinsic theatrical element.

LAT productions are comprised of professional artists who have dedicated their lives to studying how better to create the illusion of ass kicking on stage and in film for optimal audience entertainment and who wish to elevate the art and practice to the highest performance standards.
