Moving Target Theatre Company
Based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Moving Target Theatre Company was founded in 2003 by Daniel Thau-Eleff to produce his work, first as an actor and since 2004 as a playwright, often in collaboration with director/dramaturg Chris Gerrard-Pinker.
Since 2004, Moving Target has produced exclusively original work, most of which can be described as "personal/political."
