ARTISTIC POLICY
Pacitti Company pursues excellence in delivering high quality, original works of theatre through engaging in rigorous research and development programmes. The company utilises theatre as a mechanism for creating new and dynamic discourses around both society and the art form. It draws upon real experiences of oppression and privilege, in order to make works for the stage that are at once urgent and considered.
