The New Theater of Medicine Information

Historically, an "operating theater" referred to an amphitheater in which spectators could learn by watching surgeons perform surgery. THE NEW THEATER OF MEDICINE is a new kind of "theater". TNTM combines the creative elements of professional theater with the rigorous standards of medical education to create unique theatrical pieces that critically examine the culture, dynamics and practice of healthcare through both the lens of the patient and provider. Our consultations and customized theatrical works stem from hours of direct observation, focus groups, interviews and review of the medical literature. Through proven organizational development and change strategies, we address system and individual factors that contribute to burnout, team conflict, unprofessional behaviors, and medical errors At TNTM we understand that communication, diversity, multiculturalism, and professionalism are essential ingredients to a successful medical practice.
