2009 UK TOUR DATES!
Volcano is an international touring company of 20 years’ standing that
has produced 25 professional shows and toured to 38 countries from Argentina
to Azerbaijan. Our style is bold, exuberant and contemporary, and our
mission is to make fearless and inspiring theatre for intelligent, imaginative
people of all kinds in Wales, the UK and beyond.
We
have a reputation for energetic, unpredictable and arresting work that
combines strong visual impact, physicality and intelligent text.
Volcano's
theatre is determinedly political, setting itself against the complacent,
the orthodox, and the bland. The company's repertoire ranges from experimental
new writing and devised work to iconoclastic reworkings or deconstructions
of classics.
We also run a range of workshops, professional development courses
and community projects.
Volcano Theatre Company is funded by The Arts Council of Wales. The
company also receives project funding from The Arts Council of England
and The British Council.
"It is rare, as a regular theatre-goer in a western
country, to see a taboo aired, broken, stamped on and thrown away
in the space of a few lusty seconds." The Financial Times
on L.O.V.E.
