The Plot

Well, we're often losing it but here we are, Sarah Bishop and Will Burns. Two creatives with an idea, an ideal, and this is to bring new and original theatre to the local stage. Established in 2019 to pop a new play by Will onto the stage, we did this successfully and are going from strength to strength. Our vision into 2025 is to keep building, giving people new opportunities and doing something a little different by the end of the year!
