“New Perspectives has taken on an exciting challenge that proves rural touring companies can produce provocative work of national and international significance”-
Through 40 years of making and touring exceptional theatre, New Perspectives has established itself as the East Midlands national touring company.
Ambitious and original theatre is our hallmark, focussing on new writing, adaptations and revivals, touring and transferring productions to venues nationally and internationally. We provide career defining training and mentoring opportunities for emerging regional talent and theatre professionals and use our experience to manage the county-wide rural touring scheme Northants Touring Arts.
Our work is made to tour, to fit into unlikely spaces, making theatre accessible to a wide range of audiences. We never shy from showing the wires of our work and embrace the distinct character of each new environment. Our rural core gives everything we do a strong sense of intimacy and occasion.
With the support of partners, collaborators and donors we will continue to create:
A Rural Perspective: making work with themes and ideas that resonate with rural communities, whilst exploring new forms of rural theatre through our collaborative PhD research.
A Wider Perspective: bringing audiences into contact with great international art and ideas, by creating a global programme of work that reshapes the rural repertoire.
A New Perspective: offering audiences exposure to new voices, through work by cutting edge new talent or through contemporary takes on existing work.
