PROTEANS

The Proteans are the informal community workshop company affiliated to Proteus Theatre Company. The group, made up of adults from North Hampshire area, access the diverse and wonderful actors and artists working with Proteus.

They come and see all our performances and feed back their thoughts, and get involved in the larger participatory projects that Proteus undertakes. Most importantly, the group only undertake performances when they felt like it, and even then, not all the members of the group have to be involved. The acting company is based at the Proteus offices.

This term it costs £2 per session to become a member of the Proteans and the group currently are working towards a performance of MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING, to be performed at Central Studio week commencing 16th June 2008
