Red Ladder Theatre Company
Red Ladder is a Leeds-based national touring theatre company. All our work tells stories about and for working class audiences – stories of struggle and heroism, sometimes with live music, always with humour and/or provocation. We take our own work, as well as productions from emerging talent, into theatres and non-traditional spaces such as working men’s clubs, community centres or sports and socials.
We offer free actor, director and writer training, and some of our projects have opportunities for community performers to participate both onstage and backstage.
Watch our video showing community involvement in our production of ‘Mother Courage and Her Children’ here.
We are part of Arts Together because Leeds is already a vibrant city with many exciting Arts organisations and this project will bring us together to support each other and even make some exciting work!
