Current & Future Productions

Following an incredibly hectic summer period in which we produced four different shows at three different venues with more than 130 performers, we're currently planning and developing our next shows.

Work in development includes two new productions, as well as our second 'Beginnings' new writing project, a chilly winter showcase and three experimental collaborations with some of the UK's most exciting young companies.

We'll be posting information about all of these projects, and more, here soon.

In the meantime, you might want to check out our past productions or our production gallery.

A to B and in between was the Highbury Oracle Project's first ever showing of work.

Between March and July 2010, 30 young people aged 9-12 worked with the director Anne Tipton, the director Abdul Shayek and two members of Work in Progress, Ehireme Omoaka and Shekeira Martin.  Supported by Oracle Project Co-ordinator Carol Sidney, they worked together to create a new piece of theatre about the areas they live in and how safe they feel there.

Alongside the project, the workshop team visited the six primary schools who nominated the Oracle participants and leading research workshops with over 200 year 5 students.  Their findings  fed directly into the showing and into a final report for Cambridge Education @ Islington, who originally commissioned the project.
