We are a creative producer and as well as presenting and curating the best touring work, we create our own productions, festivals and events which we hope will entertain, stimulate and inspire our audiences at home and abroad.
We prioritise work that...
Celebrates the voice as an instrument

Our focus is on making theatre with music; musical theatre, plays with songs, gig theatre or a story where the score is fundamental to the production.
Gives a platform to a wide variety of voices

We produce innovative, contemporary work that both entertains and challenges our audiences, telling new stories and giving a platform to new voices including those that are under-represented, celebrating Wales in all its diversity.
Connects to Wales
Our work promotes Welsh talent or tells stories with Welsh roots for audiences to enjoy at home and abroad.
Is Magical

We believe in work that has the power to expand our worlds, spark emotions and fire imaginations. We do this by...
Reach
Our work connects Wales and the world, developing commercial partnerships which enable us to share our work with more audiences, giving it a longer life through touring and raising our profile.
Talent
Our work is rooted in collaborating with the best artists from Wales and beyond and finding opportunities for challenge and growth.
Opportunity
We provide hands-on training associated with our productions which develops skills for work and clear career pathways for new voices and young people in Wales
Test and Grow

We create a research and development environment that gives artists the right time, space and support to allow for failure,and experimentation, enabling good ideas to emerge and fly.
