“Bloody Incredible... I literally sat there with my jaw dropped... never have I seen poetic drama so vividly realised by a performance...chilling subconscious menagerie struggling beneath our waking state.”

 

 - Miles Merrill

Siren Theatre Co

Siren Theatre Co makes theatre that inspires artists and audiences with bold imaginative experiences.  

Each play is a celebration of our humanity in all it's horror, hilarity and complexity.  Poetic texts, staging impossibilities, unexpected theatricality, despair, glamour, hope and love.  Siren Theatre Co begins revolutions from small spaces.

In 2013 Siren Theatre Co will produce Enda Walsh's startling PENELOPE - September - TAP GALLERY (transformed in a way you've never seen it!).  Stay tuned for details of the cast.....

 

 

 

Siren Theatre Co has commissioned - with Mudlark Theatre (from Launceston) - a new play for young audiences by Finegan Krukemeyer: THE VIOLENT OUTBURST THAT DREW ME TO YOU.  Watch this space for updates on this project....

Siren Theatre Co has produced work in Sydney since 1997. Our work includes classics, contemporary drama and premieres of new Australian plays.  Siren Theatre Co’s audiences range from adults, students and families. We also believe in the value of on-going training and to this end the company runs Acting and Directing Masterclasses for practitioners.
