“It looked neither young nor old, the face, as though stranded between the vernal and the sere. Such ambiguity I found difficult to bear.”

— Samuel Beckett, First Love

anything can happen.

Something must happen.

Since its founding in 2016, Vernal & Sere Theatre has gained local and national recognition for its daring work which challenges traditional American Theatre. Vernal & Sere is an ensemble-based company driven by the desire to create imaginative, difficult theatre which addresses current issues and traditional modes of interpretation through performance experimenting with language and movement while reaching for the sublime, the profane, and the outright ambiguous. The company asks audiences to plunge headfirst into the void between such polarities and then reorient themselves to the wonderful and difficult reality of being. It is their belief that such an act expands thought, deepens empathy, and reinvigorates one to life.
