Open Clasp Theatre Company Information

Our aim is to Change the World, One Play at a Time. The theatre we co-create calls for revolution. It ignites activism and places theatre at the heart of transforming the lives of women and girls. We co-create with women excluded by theatre and society to create bold and urgent theatre for personal, social and political change. We create spaces for women to come together, to be creative, to talk, discuss and debate. Women gather as experts in their lived experience to highlight the issues and what needs to change. Our work is regularly performed in theatres, prisons, schools, conferences, and community centres . We have recently developed our digital engagement strategy ensuring we highlight social justice issues, further giving a voice to the women collaborated with and enabling new audiences to contribute to debate. The work resonates deeply into the communities where it is created and ensures that outside these communities, the under-represented are seen in a new light.
