Meet RK. Here. In this place shared by you and I.
RK would like to share a story with you about some things that happened once.

This one-actor piece by OBIE lifetime achievement award winner and 2024 Guggenheim fellow Caridad Svich explores the radical nature of vulnerability during shocking times.
Frequent collaborators Andrew Hungerford and Douglas Borntrager team up with acclaimed performer Elizabeth Chinn Molloy to create an on-line performance that is simultaneously a piece of site-specific theatre for a single audience member and a streaming event available to everyone.
Poignant and intimate, this one night only livestream experiment pushes at the boundaries of what we call "theatre."

Please help support independent theatre making through a Pay What You Wish Contribution!
distance over time is not a non-profit corporation, we're a collective of artists contributing our personal time and resources to making new work.
All money received goes directly to cover artist pay and production costs.
Velocity, the vector version of change in position over change in time, defines both speed and direction.
The short version of our name, dx/dt, is instantaneous velocity, the rate of change over a very small amount of time.
Key to the work of distance over time theatre is a kind of motion, a snapshot of change in progress.
We've made shows in Cincinnati, Edinburgh, Los Angeles and on-line.
Let's move together to explore what's next, to discover what's possible
