BEASTHOUSE are an award winning, critically acclaimed, theatrical production company.
The work we produce is physical, filmic, and funny.
Using just performers and the audience's imagination; we create entertaining, compelling and epic stories on stage. Through referencing popular and cult culture genres we push the boundaries of theatre to create dynamic, ambitious, and cinematic shows. We believe theatre can be a really good night out
