Gateway Performance Productions

Gateway Performance Productions specializes in mask and mime theatre, including the Gateway Irish Mummers - a 2,500 year old form of masked folk theatre. With hand-made leather and paper masks, the performers create unforgettable images and characters.

In September 2000 Gateway established The MASK Center in Atlanta — a unique performing arts facility and community resource designed to educate the public concerning the artistic, cultural and historical significance of theatrical masks through performances, workshops, exhibits, classes and demonstrations.

The honey bees are stressed and dying in massive numbers. This is an environmental, ecological and global issue with serious consequences for us all.
