Insignificant Theatre, a London-based company, was founded in 2011 but conceived long before. We provide a platform for new writing and up-and-coming talent. As our name suggests, we are not trying to change the world. We like talent, we like good writing and we drink tea.
In 2011 we had the pleasure of working with thirty-eight writers and twenty-two actors over four sold out events at our venue in Covent Garden. We're looking forward to an action-packed 2012 with more new writing nights, festival appearances and chances for you to get involved.
We hope that you find our website interesting and informative; use the menu above to guide yourself through. Feel free to get in touch, we'd love to hear from you.
