Hello. We are The River People. It's lovely to meet you.

The River People are an award winning theatre company (Best Emerging Company Total Theatre Awards 2009, Edinburgh International Festival Fringe Prize winners 2009) and are currently associate artists at The Point Theatre Eastleigh, that create honest handmade theatre through the use of dark folk storytelling, puppetry and live music.

 

As well as creating and touring theatrical productions the company also offer a wide range of educational and skills based workshops (one offs, holiday, and regular youth theatres) for adults and young people, and undertake puppet and set making commissions.
