About Jacknife

Jacknife Theatre Company is unique, diverse and original. Our company aim is to create a successful and well-known touring company that produces a broad range of entertainment for all ages at a range of different venues.

Our company have previously utilised various theatrical forms such as: sight specific ventures, audience participation and physical theatre and are constantly striving to innovate within the art form by collaborating with ever changing and new artists and ideas.

The founding members of Jacknife Theatre Company have previously graduated from Middlesex University, all with Theatre Arts Degrees; some of whom are progressing at masters level and our training there has inspired us to create and explore new ideas freely and imaginatively, welcoming artists and all mediums of theatre to stimulate creativity.

We aim to be as multifaceted as possible with members of the company not only performing but working as set designers / costume designers / sound designers and directors. Our mission is to continue to break the boundaries of theatre in our constant search for a new genre whilst maintaining enjoyment and excitement within our rehearsals and for our audience.
