WHO WE ARE
Undone Theatre is a London-based theatre company focussing on experimenting with different forms of storytelling and undoing classical narratives.
Whether it is an entirely new piece or a complete rewrite of a classical text, we create relevant new work that questions and challenges traditional forms of storytelling.
We are interested in showcasing queer perspectives, non-linear narratives and stories that voice multiple viewpoints.
