Nathaniel Shaw is artistic director of The Active Theater Company, a group of artists "dedicated to the work, both new and old, that moves you. Works that move you to think and rethink, to laugh, to love, to cry, to question. Moves you to anger, moves you to action, and moves you to feel more than you are comfortable feeling."
