Home to all things experimental, FST's Bowne’s Lab presents FST’s Stage III and weekly FST Improv Series. Furnished with a steam punk-inspired flair, this fun and edgy space sets the stage for artistic productions that challenge with as much gusto as they entertain. Past Stage III productions include The Last Match, BabelThe Nether, Cherry Docs, Hand to God, The Things They Carried, How to Use a Knife, Stalking the Bogeyman, and more.
