About Us
"A unique, special theatre project"
The Black Dog Theatre Creation is a special not-for-profit theatre group set up and run by Alfie James Productions which aims at using performance skills to support people suffering from poor confidence, anxiety and to help to reduce the risk of people becoming isolated. It is also open to those who simply love being creative, learning new theatre skills and staging plays regularly. Now in its sixth year it is slowly growing and is building its reputation as being a wonderful, positive, and successful group. We currently have two groups in Colchester and Camden, London and we often run short bite-size projects in Brentwood and Suffolk. We develop small projects, workshops and performances and work with other artists to offer our members the opportunity to engage in a wide range of artistic skills. Our projects are free to access and open to all.

CURRENT NEWS
TENTH ANNIVERSARY
Can you believe it? In 2024 The Black Dog Theatre Creation will be celebrating its tenth anniversary since it first opened its doors. Over the past ten years, we’ve worked with so many members, artists, performance spaces and formed links with other community support groups. We’ve taken part in an outdoor festival, survived Covid, tripled our audience sizes, created over 15 productions, and even got our heads around developing our own audio plays!
But we couldn’t have done it with your help. THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us. We really appreciate your kindness and help.
