About Piti Theatre: Piti Theatre Company was founded in 2004 by American playwright/actor Jonathan Mirin and Swiss choreographer, dancer and visual artist Godeliève Richard. We’re based in Shelburne Falls, MA and Les Ponts-de-Martel, Switzerland.
Piti (pronounced “PEA-tea”) is an ancient Indian (Pali) word translatable as “joy” or “rapture.” Piti programming plants seeds of joy, sustainability and justice in hearts, minds and communities. Piti’s local programming in the U.S. is dedicated to engaging underserved rural communities across Franklin County.
We also facilitate a unique cultural and human connection between Switzerland and the U.S. by making shows in french and english and offering the possibility of artist/student exchange between the two countries.
