The Aesthetic Realism Theatre Company

Among May Musicant's proudest accomplishments was her work as the costume supervisor for a theatrical company which performed Ibsen's great play Hedda Gabler, based on the new, unprecedented interpretation by Eli Siegel, founder of Aesthetic Realism: "Hedda Gabler was essentially a good person." Today the Aesthetic Realism Theatre Company continues to show, through the drama of the world, that this principle is true: "All beauty is a making one of opposites, and the making one of opposites is what we are going after in ourselves." I encourage you to attend the April 10th special matinee performance of "Comedy and Music Defeat Contempt--An Ethical Celebration" with scenes from Sheridan's School for Scandal: http://www.aestheticrealismtheatreco.org/flyers/SheridanHandel05.pdf

Who We Are

The Aesthetic Realism Theatre Company presents innovative talks by Eli Siegel, founder of the philosophy Aesthetic Realism, on plays such as Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Othello and A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Sheridan’s School for Scandal, Ibsen’s A Doll’s House and George Kelly’s The Flattering Word.
Each production of our Company is a rich weaving of scenes from the play with commentary on its meaning, the intention of the playwright, the motives of the characters, the beauty of the writing--and what all this can teach us about our lives today. Our productions have as their basis this principle stated by Mr. Siegel:
All beauty is a making one of opposites, and the making one of opposites is what we are going after in ourselves.
Both personally and professionally, we're grateful to Mr. Siegel for his understanding of the drama, and the selves of people, including our own.
