Frank Wo/Men Collective is an Austin, Texas based Theatre and Dance collective, based in Austin and New York City, that creates and produces new pieces of theatre.

History

Loose Gravel, Frank Wo/Men Collective’s highly-received 2017 debut, was hailed by Fjord Review’s Jonelle Seitz as "Contemplative, skilled, inventive, and often hilarious.” Frank Benge of BroadwayWorld deemed the evening “raw, edgy, and occasionally brilliant." In an article published in American Theatre Magazine, The Rude Mechs discussed their production of Not Every Mountain in which they, "first looked to dancers from a physical theatre performance they’d seen in Austin in January, Loose Gravel, by Frank Wo/Men Collective" in seeking new collaborators. This production of Not Every Mountain has been seen at the Guthrie Theatre in Minneapolis, Minnesota. [1]

In 2017 Frank Wo/Men Collective was listed in 'Top 10 Thrills (No Frills)' in the Austin Chronicle by Jonelle Seitz.[2]

In 2018 Frank Wo/Men Collective was commissioned by Meow Wolf to create site specific work for SXSW.
