About us
“One of the UK's most admired phyiscal theatre companies.” The Scotsman
“UK based Theatre Re has a truly unique method of storytelling.” Luxembourg Times
We are one of the UK’s leading visual theatre companies. Our work combines original live music with striking visual performance to create world class, deeply moving non-verbal productions about universal human challenges and the fragility of life. We engage with audiences locally, nationally and internationally to create, share and promote life-changing theatre that is both inventive and accessible through cross-arts and cross-sector collaboration.
We are an artist-led company based at The Point in Eastleigh with a strong 14-year track record: six mid-scale productions, extensive touring in the UK (85 venues in 50 cities) and internationally (17 countries across 3 continents) - including a Broadway transfer, international licensing of our repertoire and sold-out runs at the Hong Kong Arts Festival, the Cerventino Festival (Mexico), and London International Mime Festival.
Our training programme is in high demand across the world with long-term partners such the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre. Partnerships with community organisations throughout the creation process and while on tour are central to our work.
