About Us

Grain of Sand Theatre is dedicated to telling stories that stimulate the audience and artist by exploring the unusual through the familiar, and the familiar through the unusual.

Sara Bickler and Christine Lange, reading King Leir (No, the Other One)

We produce new works that tell familiar stories and retell classical works in new ways.

It is a grain of sand in William Blake's Auguries of Innocence.

To see the World in a Grain of Sand
And Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And Eternity in an hour.

It is a grain of sand that, abrasive in an oyster shell, becomes a pearl.

It is a grain of sand of Robert William Service's poem

I think Life's mystery might be
Solved in this grain of sand.

It is a grain of sand that Archimedes used to fill the universe.

It is a grain of sand that can tip the scale just enough to change the world.
