​
​
Two's A Crowd Productions was started by our two company directors
Rob and Joe with the intention of recognising and celebrating all the roles
people undertake in theatre making on and off stage.
Often creative people wear many 'hats' and do many jobs to bring a production
to life. Whilst our team have 'job titles' we all work as directors, producers,
writers, stage managers, designers, technicians and more simultaneously...
​​​
We want to ensure that we celebrate and champion our practitioners
for every part they play in producing amazing work!
​​
We believe even a small team can create excellent work, because as we say...
Two's A Crowd.
