Siren Theatre Co creates theatre from a love of play and rigorous storytelling.  These works challenge us artistically and inspire audiences with bold imaginative experiences.  In a cross section of work includes classics, contemporary drama and premieres of new plays Siren Theatre Co’s audiences range from adults, students and families. 

 Siren Theatre Co has produced work in Sydney since 1997 with the support of fellow artists and funding bodies; and includes partnerships with arts organizations and venues.

In June 2010 the company takes up residence at Sidetrack Theatre in Marrickville and a season of THE SEAGULL performed by some of Sydney’s best loved actors.  Siren Theatre Co will present a first-draft production of a premiere of a new Australian play in September as part of the Sydney Fringe Festival and will produce AS YOU LIKE IT for Carriage works in April 2011.
