(*varies with locaton & programme)

We collaborate with venues to present one-off shows, curate residencies and festivals that progressively build and develop audiences for performance storytelling – especially in the regions. We help venue programmers select storytelling shows from permanent repertoire and touring work based on your specific context, your existing and your target audiences.

Venues come to us because they want to give audiences new live art experiences that are accessible, intelligent, diverse, weird, wonderful and down-right different.

what the venues say...

We love working with the Crick Crack Club: there’s such a huge range of styles, approaches and dynamics in their work, from intense focus to wild explosions of energy. Every show has been a surprise, an aural and visual feast, and has always brought in a different cross-section of people. I would like them to be a permanent feature of our programme at Kings Place.

Like bolts of life through cold stone or bronze, the Crick Crack Club reawaken the Museum’s objects with the human wonder and immediacy they were created to hold, in a way that no lecture simply could. Their performances remind us of the unifying potency of shared stories and mythologies.
