About Face Theatre Company - quietly making radical theatre, since 1995.
One of the UK's flagship learning disability theatre companies led by artistic director Jess Mackenzie. About Face was built from a dream of providing high-quality creative arts opportunities for neurodivergent and differently-abled actors. All of the actors are trained puppeteers and have toured nationally as part of several industry renowned festivals including Hay Festival, Beverley Puppetry Festival, Brighton Fringe, and many more. About Face has developed a reputation for highly creative, unusual, and thought-provoking work over the years.
About Face offers four different experiences of theatre across the working week, all based at the Forbury Workshop, Leominster: the Performance Company, Drama for All, Theatre Skills and Theatre Foundation. Participants are placed according to their interests, abilities, and availability.
About Face Theatre Company is part of the ECHO, a Herefordshire based charity that provides a wide range of opportunities for people with learning disabilities to grow in confidence and find a meaningful place as part of the community.
