找我劇場成立於2008年，由劇場編導、製作策演人張育嘉與其成員共同成立。

張育嘉現為找我劇場藝術總監，亦為紐約國際導演實驗室（WorldWideLab)創始成員之一。

2009年曾獲亞洲文化協會獎助殊榮、亦曾擔任Robert Wilson導排演助理。

張育嘉除編導個人原創作品外，亦擅長跨文化和跨領域作品合作，並長期研究演員表演的有機性和其相關訓練。

找我劇場的創建即以此為創立概念。

找我劇場以「找我」為名，旨在觸碰內在真實的自己。

在中文的「找」和「我」只差源頭的那一劃，

透過劇場藝術觸動靈魂最深處，連結到最真實的「我」。

找我劇場認為劇場屬於流動的、多元的、跨領域的多感空間美學，

因此以全人教育和劇場人類學的觀點，重新審視自我與空間之間的價值，

進行原創作品的製作演出、跨文化的藝術交流、以及創意表演培訓「河流實驗室」的建立及推廣，

期待以劇場表演為根基，將創造力帶入生活各場域，讓藝術成為大家一起「找我」的共通語言。

ESP-I Performing Arts Group is an interdisciplinary theatre company operating out of Banqiao district in New Taipei City founded in 2008 by award-winning theatre artist Jocelyn YuChia Chang.

The group explores the ways in which theatrical arts can embolden its participants to introspect one's true self.

The company's name is inspired by the English verb "espy", meaning: "to be able to perceive things which are previously unnoticed or partially hidden.". Jocelyn further elaborated on the concept by replacing the "y" with "I" to echo the company's mandate on self-inspection.

ESP-I Performing Arts Group believes that theatre should be flowing, multifaceted, and cross-border—the multi-sensory aesthetics of space. It therefore has been working with views of holistic education and Theatre Anthropology; it aspires to re-examine the value between self and space, and based on this it has been working on the production of original works, cross-cultural exchanges, and the promotion of The River Lab. Starting from the theatre, ESP-I Performing Arts Group hopes to bring its creation into multiple fields of life, and produces art that can be the common language for “espying oneself.”
