Target Margin Theater kicks off its 2026-2027 season with The Nonsense Lab, a three-week performance festival of new work that explores the theme of Nonsense. Running September 17 – October 3, 2026, The Nonsense Lab will offer three productions, each for six performances, and three 1-night events! All the Lab Artists start with two questions: how can we work meaningfully with the nonsense around us? How can we create poetry and beauty through nonsense itself? Grab dinner at the classic Brooklyn taco spot, Tacos El Bronco before each show and get drinks at Irish Haven, another classic Brooklyn spot, after for a full night out! Full schedule below:

Let Me Be An Animal
September 18, 26, 27 at 7pm; September 19 at 4pm; October 2 at 9pm; October 3 at 2pm

We’ll Jump Off That Bridge When We Get There
September 17, 20, 25 and October 2 at 7pm; September 26 and October 3 at 4pm

The Charnel House
September 19, 24 and October 1, 3 at 7pm; September 20, 27 at 4pm

One-time music and artistic events enrich the program. On Tuesday, September 22, TMT Community Café for the Nonsensical will feature a collective reading of Entertainer Zero Machine: A Cyber Peep Show Lyric of Illegitimate Theater by Ron Allen. Saskia Lane leads our Nonsense Music Night on Monday, September 28 and Theresa Buchheister assembles a Nonsense Performance Night on Wednesday, September 30.

“Welcome to the Steps Academy, you dance for your LIFE here” ✨

Robert Redick asked his Summer Intensive Session 3 dancers to set the tone for their week with just one word. As they went around the circle, we couldn’t help but feel inspired by the enthusiasm, maturity, and gratitude all these dancers showed their peers and faculty.

Robert brings a distinct ease to the studios⚡️which allows his dancers to speak and move freely and authentically. His personality shines through his choreography and his warm, constructive teaching style encourages EVERYONE to take that leap of faith and try new things.

⭐️Come take YOUR next leap and keep up your training up by celebrating one year of Robert’s weekly Steps on Broadway teaching slot ⏰TODAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 2026!
In-studio and virtual options available.
