No Shame Theatre
No Shame Theatre was founded by Todd Ristau and Stan Ruth at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa in 1986. It is a forum for stage performances of original works, often presented as a late-night talent show. Chapters were later started in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Charlottesville, and many college campuses. By 2012, 20 theatre troupes had been started across the United States.
