The Dire Theatre Company was established as a way of encouraging the creation of original, independent theatre, that has real social relevance. Not activism as such, but theatre, performances, and projects, that sit outside of confines of conventional popular theatre and the institutions that uphold them, and that carry messages of positive change.The Dire Theatre Company wants to use theatre, performance, and art in all of its iterations to Incite Change. Without Fear.
