Picture of John Picture of Carol

Oleanna has become a modern classic, provoking and shocking audiences on both sides of ‘the pond’. Crackling dialogue combined with breathtaking realism make this unique play an unforgettable warning for us all. Oleanna was toured twice Tough for both audience and cast, Oleanna taught us some lessons about how much grit our audience will take. We are now determined to source more provocative fare.
