Real Circumstance

About me:

“Real Circumstance’s work is becoming an intriguing nugget of profound dramatic quality, intricately detailed until the end.” British Theatre Guide

Real Circumstance Theatre Company has three aims: to produce innovative theatre consisting of new writing by emergent writers,a nd new plays created by the Company through long-term real-time improvisation; to help young theatre-practitioners develop their crafts both before and after professional training; and to raise the profile of Essexand the Eastern Region as a national centre of creative artistic work.

In our plays we explore human narratives that exsit in detailed, three-dimensional, worlds. All our work is underpinned by a process of rehearsal in which actors are encouraged to create fully-realised imaginary selves, who are able to respond truthfully to any given circumstance.

Real Circumstance presents: Our Share of Tomorrow

He asked her out when they were sitting on the Quay. She was fifteen, he a year older, and they were very happy. But then she had to go away – something to do with her parents. So he sat on the Quay waiting for her. And one day she came back.

Our Share of Tomorrow is a love story.
