FoolishPeople create art, theatre, film, books and collaborative events to raise a numinous experience within the witness. We engineer immersive, open source experiences that initiate positive change. 

We use ancient mythological techniques to enable a re-awakening of humanity's purpose & the individual's 'true will'. 

John Harrigan founded FoolishPeople in 1989, taking its name from one of the major arcana of the tarot, card 0: The Fool. The Fool reminds us of sacred things that we have forgotten or repressed and knows his or her own ignorance, thus is seen as the most wise. The Fool coaxes us to walk our own path, not the path of the 'herd', to become a 'Free Spirit'- a self-actualized person, free from societal constraints, who is able to let go of outmoded beliefs and ideals with the courage to pursue their own special path.
