ARTISTIC POLICY
Foursight Theatre has gained its reputation over the past 20 years for theatre which reviews history through the eyes of women: unknown, famous and infamous. Their shows are vivid, comic, intellectually rigorous and deeply rooted in physical theatre, combining word, movement and music in equal measure.

REVIEW EXTRACTS
‘Sharp, critical, imaginative, intelligent... and extremely funny.’ BBC Front Row (Thatcher, The Musical!)

‘Slick, vibrant, funny and delightful – whatever your political colour.’ British Theatre Guide (Thatcher, The Musical!)

‘The theatricality of this company is staggering.’ Vancouver Georgia Straight

CURRENT PRODUCTION
Thatcher, The Musical! An irreverent romp through the life and times of Margaret Thatcher. Drawing on the traditions of West End musical, stand-up, and the grotesque, nine Thatchers lead an all-singing, all-dancing bonanza hosted by the Iron Lady herself. (130 mins including 20 mins interval, 10 on stage, 13 on the road.)

WRAP-AROUND
Workshops in physical theatre and devising processes, after-show talks, and lectures can all be provided by arrangement. The company has considerable teaching experience in many higher education institutions in Britain and Canada.
