Actor for R and D – GreenHouse Theatre Project

GreenHouse Theatre Project is a site-responsive theatre company that creates bold and exciting work in some of the most interesting spaces in Stoke-On-Trent. We are excited to be embarking on our fourth production due to be performed next year in the Victorian council chambers of Hanley Town Hall. Our production is currently exploring the themes of justice, retribution and the roles of women in society. Just like our previous work, this will be an immersive production and audience members will play an active role in the outcome of the story.
