B4 The Other Creations holds space for exploration into individual and collective identity. Our visionary process is our product. As interdisciplinary artists we weave all of our training to empower creativity, innovation, and leadership through vulnerability in adolescents and adults alike. This intimate work is led through movement, not lecture, and grounded in a Pedagogy of Play. Co-founded by Christopher J Beaulieu and Malia’Kekia Nicolini, B4 The Other Creations specializes in teaching Community Building through Play. Mindfully derived from our experiences performing and educating through physical theater and mindfulness. Founded on principles of equity, the company was devised in 2018 after decades of witnessing transformative breakthroughs from participants of all ages. B4 The Other is rooted in the Berkshires of Western Massachusetts. We acknowledge the ancestral peoples of the Mohican and Wabanaki Confederacy land that we reside on. Prior to Covid, B4 The Other traveled throughout the United States and internationally offering professional development, theatrical productions, and educational residencies.
