The theatre space is the brainchild of two tech entrepreneurs, Bryan and Elizabeth Falcón. Not only did they start the new nonprofit theatre they also helped renovate the Zuzi Theatre space, a past fringe venue. Their goal is to help connect audiences to the human condition.
“Coming out of the election season in 2016, we began to see cultural narratives at war with each other. Given the current turn that technology has taken, it has been easy for us to fall into a siloed experience within the confines of social media. Within our silos, it has become more difficult to have real conversations with people with whom we disagree. As a non-profit committed to serving the people of Tucson, we aim to bring our local community together to share story as experience, and within that experience, share differing perspectives and world views.” ~ Falcon, Elizabeth. “Renovate the ZUZI! with the Scoundrel & Scamp Theatre!” Kickstarter, 2 Aug. 2017, www.kickstarter.com/projects/1648486007/renovate-the-zuzi-with-the-scoundrel-and-scamp-the.
