What we do

Pink Paper Plane

Our programmes

We make projects for wherever people meet, reaching our audience where they are. Our work ranges from immersive theatre in heritage sites, to smartphone adventures in the streets of a neighbourhood, or playful workshops in schools, offices or community venues.

Always offering people the choice of taking a meaningful part, our work covers six main areas:
