REDSHIFT theatre co

Red Shift is a London based company which tours nationally to small and mid scale venues throughout the UK. The company also plays London, and has an enviable reputation established over many years as successful participants in the Edinburgh Festival. The company has toured abroad to Alexandria, Cairo, Santiago de Chile and Hong Kong, under the auspices of the British Council. Red Shift has a very distinctive style which has evolved out of the interests of its founding director, Jonathan Holloway.

 The company's work shows a great commitment to story, character and social issues, expressed through a rich combination of spoken and visual language. Critics have observed a variety of influences including German Expressionism, Grotowski, Artaud and Brecht. The company has always placed great emphasis on the 'cinematic' use of music, and a quality of design which lifts its production values above the level of most small-scale production in the UK.
