Madeleine Joyce, Co-Founder
EXECUTIVE PRODUCER. SCREENWRITER. ACTOR. With multi-hyphenate-style, MADELEINE JOYCE, has been learning and rocking in the performance arts since she was seven. She is inspired by the possibility of connection and likes to make art that explores the nuances of love and the ways to exorcise the condition of stuckness. As a theater-maker, a few of her credits include Clown-Producer of The BOOF, Writer-Director-Clown-Producer of Unfinished Bedtime Clown Show, the title role in Sarah Ruhl’s Eurydice, Founder-Actor-Tour Producer of No Fog West's The Laramie Project, and many more... Her transition to filmmaking came in 2017 when she Produced-Wrote-Starred-Edited a poetic roadtrip homage to Italo Calvino's Distance of the Moon and learned to be humble and admit when you don't know things. She does not know the future, but with gusto she's bringing her energetic positivity to learning about it.
