Iris Theatre was created in 2007 to produce work at the world-famous St. Paul’s Church in Covent Garden. Growing year on year, Iris gained full charity status in Oct 2009 with a mission to support the development of the next generation of professional theatre practitioners and to produce a fresh and vibrant repertoire of varied work resulting in affordable and accessible theatre.

Our collaborative approach explores performance of all styles (from classical theatre to circus-style acrobatics) working as a cohesive whole. Our artist participants include actors, musicians, opera singers, producers, directors, writers, composers, lyricists, theatre designers, stage managers, who all have the chance to work in a central London venue with a high level of exposure.

Today the company is firmly rooted within the West End theatre environment. We produce a fresh and vibrant repertoire of varied work resulting in affordable and accessible theatre catering to all age ranges right in the heart of London.
