Wild Geese Theatre Company

About Us

With over fifteen years experience creating immersive, exciting and enriching theatre for children around the world, our mission is and always has been to bring inspirational work to young people.

We make shows that are interactive and immersive. Our unique style of theatre-making puts young people in the driver’s seat and provides a platform for them to experience theatre whilst engaging creatively with it at the same time. Our incredible team of performers & facilitators bring children into the world of our plays by asking them to imagine how the characters are feeling, what they might be thinking, and predict what they might do next - calling on their empathy and reasoning skills to enrich our stories in their own unique ways. The audience is involved throughout our shows, be it through rhythmic participation, atmospheric activities or playing key characters. We want children to feel a part of the arts; to feel supported in their creativity; and ultimately to grow through experiencing live theatre.

 

Here’s what our 2022 looked like…

  • Delivered programmes of work with and for the charity sector. We had the honour of working with disabled young people across Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire.

  • Launched our new ‘BOUDICA for Schools’ project in Norfolk, inviting primary students to learn about The Romans and Ancient Britain through interactive performance.

  • Created a brand-new show, ‘The Green Knight’ with award-winning writer, Olivia Hirst.

  • Toured two shows in rep, BOUDICA & The Green Knight, to venues across England.

Engaging with the arts inspires personal progression, and all our work has been developed to ensure that children feel integral.
