overview
“So where did you get the name ‘freefall’?”
We’ve heard the question hundreds of times. And
we’ll likely hear it hundreds more, as freeFall Theatre is
quickly gaining a significant share of the arts buzz in
the greater Tampa Bay area.
Remember when you launched off your schoolyard
swings, or let go of that rope over that lake at your
summer camp? Or, perhaps, do you recall the last
time you lifted out of your seat on a roller coaster’s
quick rise and fall, or even jumped out of a plane?
That’s freeFall.
Seeing a show at freeFall offers a visceral, responsive,
and immersive theatre experience. The rush of live
theatre, the exhilaration of superb staging, and the allencompassing sense that there’s something different
going on here. All of these elements build toward the
composite of what critics are calling “utterly
professional” theatre.
And off the stage, our commitment to community
partnerships as well as fostering economic impact and
neighborhood pride is building in a very exciting way:.
We welcome the opportunity to provide space, either
rented or donated, to community organizations large
and small, for- and not-for-profit. In the pages that
follow, please find information about each space.
Should you have any questions or are ready to book
