Rapscallion Diversion

Rapscallion Diversion A new theate company founded by Jake William Smith; dedicated to new, well-made, and accessible work.

Rapscallion Diversion produces work that plays off familiar tropes, and well-known story styles to bring forward fresh new stories. These highlight and challenge common archetypes, and ideals while remaining wildly entertaining. Rapscallion Diversion prides itself on its collaborative nature, bringing together artists with unique skills to complete the project at hand. From comic book expertise to

sword fighting skills, every artist is valued for what they bring to the table, and is curated with this in mind. The company was founded by Jake William Smith; the Khan of Craft, Prince of Performance, Emperor of Expertise, Caesar of Theatre, and other synonyms for awesome. All titles bestowed upon him (if they had the time to do so) by his adoptive brothers Cory Thibert, and Tony Adams of May Can Theatre, who raised it to be a vehicle for fun, and affordable art. My band of Merry Men (some women too....past contributors):
