We has been working with the Arcola Theatre for over six years providing production services for a number of their productions. As of 2020 we have agreed to provide production management services for all in house productions at the Arcola. This takes the stress of finding production managers, organising set builds, finding crew, and managing logistics off their hands. It also means that we can coordinate between productions more effectively to save money, and to make sure things run smoothly.
tailored production management services.
our production managers work to provide a variety of production services and support to theatres and producers. as a collective, we work to make everything a little easier, and to provide a level of support that production managers couldn’t do alone. we are able to offer various levels of production support to producers and venues, from full service to ad-hoc consultancy. We take time to work with our clients to understand how we can best support their needs and create a package that best suits them. if you are interested in how we can support you then please get in contact.
Case Studies
Arcola Theatre
Tuckshop UK
We began working with Tuckshop Productions, one of the UKs leading drag agencies, to provide crew and support for the first ever West End drag Panto, Cinderella, at the Trafalgar Studios. Since then we have been the primary point of contact for all their production queries, providing analysis of touring venues and plans to identify the requirements, as well as supporting discussions with new venues on larger scale productions.
Papatango
We have been working with Papatango to provide production management for their “Prize Winner” productions for the past six years. Supplying multiple production managers over the years we have worked with Papatango on productions at Southwark Playhouse, Arcola Theatre, Trafalgar Studios and The Bush Theatre. We have also managed two UK tours for them and co-productions with “English Touring Theatre” and “James Quaife Productions”.
Troupe
We have worked closely with Troupe and their producer Ashley Cook to support their creative team on their past three productions at Southwark Playhouse, Trafalgar studios and the transfer of their latest production “The Sweet Science of Bruising” to Wiltons. Working closely with this independent producer to ensure the productions stick to tight budgets and restrictive schedules.
