A silent stage is a theatrical event with no objects to produce excessive amplified sound, or lighting, during a performance and is limited to an audience anywhere between 14 or 40 creating a special kind of audience intimacy.

Becoming a versatile creative force, The Drama Merchant’s site specific shows blur the boundaries between immersive, traditional theatre, and first hand experiences; as the audience member becomes the observer during the event, through unconventional staging techniques.
