THEATRE COMPANY

Black Box Theatre Company, founded as a cooperative in 1994, is the longest surviving component of what is now called Black Box Creative Communities CIC Ltd. With an impressive back catalogue of productions the company offers opportunities for new, up-and-coming as well as seasoned actors, writers, directors and technicians to develop their skills and further their experience in main-stage productions.

COMING SOON

HAMLET

Vibrant with action, packed with incident  Black Box presents the ‘ bloody, bawdy . . .  remorseless, treacherous, lecherous and kindless . . . ’story of a family and a nation corrupt, and one man’s inability to avenge his father’s death.

Shakespeare for the new millennium – ‘ the undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveller returns . . .’
