Who We Are


Since 1998, when Helen Lewis retired, the company has been led by Bill Smullen, Brigitte Norcross and Chris Amos. Tina Pritchard is our designer.

Over the years we've built up a pool of actors that we call on when we need them. Dawn Walsh, Mickey Stratfull and Bill have featured in recent productions.
