ABOUT US

Crooked House is a theatre-making organisation established in 1993 in Newbridge in County Kildare, Ireland. 
 
We make theatre
with, for and by young people from the ages of 11 to 21. We train young people aged 21 to 30 in Drama Facilitation and support others to audition for acting college.
 
Participation in all our activities is
free and open to anyone.
 
Our work is inspired by tolerance, equality, social justice, compassion, and empathy. We aim to create theatre that is ambitious, challenging, aesthetically engaging, and relevant to our audiences.
