Babel Theatre

Babel are an award winning contemporary theatre company creating multidisciplinary, highly-visual theatre which integrates movement, text and music to communicate the grey areas in life where language alone is insufficient. We strive to make our work wide open to interpretation and put our audience at the heart of the narrative. We believe in creating a sense of TOTAL THEATRE, where all elements of a production are artistically integral. Immersing our audiences in a world of sound and colours and unpacking vital, visceral emotions and ideas that resonate with contemporary living, placing our audiences and their experiences at the centre of the play. ‘‘The process of making theatre is the process of unpacking the overwhelming nuances and sensations in emotions and struggles of contemporary living. Theatre, for us, is how we understand the world. It gives us a lens with which we can reduce the chaos of the natural world and highlight the absurdity of some of it‘s elements.‘‘ - Joseph Lynch, Artistic Director
