BANNER THEATRE
Banner Theatre is one of Britain's longest established community theatre companies, with thirty years' experience of working with marginalized and disadvantaged communities. Using a combination of theatre, music and "actuality" (recorded voices captured by video or audio), we create entertaining and thought-provoking issue-led productions based on people?s real-life experiences and in support of disenfranchised sections of society. We perform to community and trade union audiences in pubs, clubs and community centres and at rallies, festivals and conferences.
