Deadman Theatre
Deadman was founded with a deep desire to challenge the status quo. Not wanting to see the same old same old, an overwhelming need to see new, exciting, representative work for its own sake. Work that supports and represents underrepresented artists and communities.

A core principle of this work is our home on the Isle of Wight. We are inspired by our coastal cultural historical heritage - one whose history and stories anchor us and connect us to our community and the world around us.
Like many rural and coastal places, we must fight to have our voice heard. To challenge the accepted view and we must fight to have new work and new stories that can empower and drive connection in our community and communities like ours.
