“MAX is a truly unique and profound company as it links brilliant and expansive scientific thinking with innovative design and theater making. As a designer who works around the world I can share that the efforts of the entire company are full of class, inspiration and a commitment to big idea in the community. One of last season’s highlights for me was working with this inspiring company.”
