Profile Information
- What I do... (Actor, director, designer, teacher etc?)
- Red Ladder makes new theatre productions and tours them nationally to theatre and community venues.
Founded in 1968 in London, has a colourful history. It spans 30 years, from the radical socialist theatre movement in Britain known as agitprop, to the company's current position.
The company moved to Leeds in the 70's and is still based in the city. During the 80's the company redefined itself, changing its cooperative structure to a hierarchy and became a company that specialised in targeted work for youth audiences. Often targeting young people who have little or no access to theatre.
- My Quick CV
- Today the company is acknowledged as one of Britain's leading national touring companies producing high quality new plays for youth audiences. Our aim is to make theatre which celebrates, inspires and challenges young people, developing in them the desire and ability to express ideas and strengthen social and cultural cohesion. We are looking to embellish current text-driven practice by experimentation with new theatre practice – including working with other art forms, partnerships and international collaboration.
- The first thing that inspired me in theatre...
- Red Ladder was inspired by the 60's, an era of riots, demonstrations and political debate. They wanted theatre to take part in this revolution of ideas.
- My favourite theatre something is...
- The diversity and range of artistic styles that make up our industry.

A new theatre group based in Islington. You can catch our first play, No One Sees the Video by Martin Crimp at the Rosemary Branch Theatre from the 21st May to the 31st.
The Bunbury Banter Theatre Company was born from a desire to make theatre accessible to all, but particularly those who are not aware of its power, entertainment and diverse nature!
this group is for people who are interested in improvisation. How it affects their life, relationships. Join this group if you'd like to hang out and improvise with other improvisers!
Movement, sound, spoken word... Anything goes!
