Welcome to
ALITHEA CREATIONS

Fusion. Integration. Organic. An individual’s personal voice evolves from the myriad of experiences that sculpt the artistic aesthetic when creating work at any moment. The Alithea Mime Theatre is a company committed to a continuing vision of mime theatre as a single discipline and multidiscipline with an emphasis on group choreography. After accepting the invitation to co-found the Goldston School for Mime while engaging in parallel training in dance, Johnson established an artistic identity in the mime theatre with a talent for company choreography. In 1994, Johnson, with Sabrina Vasquez as associate artistic director, established the Alithea Mime Theatre and embarked on a creative journey that continues today. In 1999, Alithea became a professional company in residence at Wichita State University.

Further work that emerged from Alithea combined original music composition with stage and film. What followed were multidisciplinary works, on-site experimental performances, and a focus on audience immersion. Wichita State University became home to a diverse collection of interdisciplinary experiments that further developed Alithea’s creative voice by providing support, encouragement, resources, and professional-quality emerging talent.
