Direct Arts is an intercultural company dedicated to producing and promoting plays and films that explore the intersection between cultures. By producing and promoting work that is not just multi-cultural, but inter-cultural, Direct Arts seeks to challenge the ghettoization of minorities in mainstream media and develop greater public awareness of a substantial body of plays and films that holds a more truthful mirror to New York City, America and the world.
Direct Arts made its theatrical debut in 2008 with a short play at P.S. 122 and currently produces a monthly double bill of theater and film called Take Two. Other current projects include a documentary on Taiwanese independence, ALMOST HOME: TAIWAN. Direct Arts productions have been supported by Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, the Puffin Foundation and the Asian American Arts Alliance.
