Raconteur Theatre Company

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Raconteur Theatre Company is a Columbus, Ohio theater formed in 2007 after the merger of two of the city's longstanding theater companies, Miscreant Productions and the Bison Theatre.[1]

Raconteur Theatre Company was founded on the belief that storytelling is essential to the human experience.

Raconteur's most successful show was Jacob M. Appel's Arborophilia in 2010.[2][3]
