ABOUT
Who Are We? (From Our Artistic Director)
"What Can't You Do With a Cardboard Box?" This was the question I spent years asking myself through performing in various Amateur and Community Theatre Productions. Need to make a Toadstool? Cut it from a Cardboard Box, Paint it, and Stick it to a Chair. Need to create a Book Shelf? Unfold a Cardboard Box, Paint it, and Stick it onto a Stack of Stage Blocks. Need to make a Comically Large Key? Cut it out of yesterday's Amazon Delivery and cover it in Tin Foil.
Creating Shows on Little to No Budget always means you've got to get creative with your design. You Search your Fancy Dress Box for Costumes, Find Props lying around your house, and create a set from a Cardboard Box. This only adds to the charm of the piece.
The Carboard Box Theatre Company are a group of young creatives who aim to find the beauty in everyday life. We aims to bridge the gap between Community and Professional Theatre. Creating High Quality Performances that are rooted in Local Communities, Championing the Voices of the Residents, and remain affordable for All. We incorporate Dance, Music, Projections and Audience Participation into our Storytelling style of Theatre.
Our Mission Statement is "to create low-cost high-quality theatre that's accessible for everyone, no matter of their socio-economic status or background". As long as we're doing this, and having fun while we do it, the Cardboard Box Theatre Company will always exist.
