The imaginations of the Ragroof team are inspired by other people’s memories and knitted together using physical expression, text, soundscapes, poetry and visual language.
As theatre-makers we are fascinated by the way that stories and memories become brighter, more vivid in the retelling. Our work is often inspired by the very smallest detail, and it is in the retelling of any story, with the added elements of theatricality, that these details, the essence of memory, come to life.
We have always wanted to make theatre in unusual spaces, believing in the added dimension that this gives our work. From our first show made in a Citroën 2CV, we came to be called Ragroof Theatre.
Ragroof Theatre receive ongoing and invaluable support from Basement Arts Production, South East in all areas of business mentoring – such as producing, fundraising, marketing and selling work – as well as financial advice. Basement Arts also provide Ragroof Theatre with storage space, office space and a fabulous rehearsal space for creation.
