Neil-Futurists

The Carthage Neil-Futurists is a theatre/anti-theatre group embracing the fast-paced ups and downs of reality, expressing truth, and breaking rules. After studying the art of Neo-Futurism, one of Carthage’s J-Term classes, the students of professor Neil Scharnick were inspired to continue performing this unique form of theatre by starting their own student organization.
