Want The Moon Theatre Presents SHADOWS
by Stephi Wild - Jun 1, 2019

Want the Moon is an emerging company set up in 2017 by graduates of the University of Leeds. Since then, we've produced work performed at festivals and venues all over the UK. We are strong advocates of new writing, and we believe in creating pieces that will shock and intrigue an audience. We love theatre that defies conventions; particularly dark, modernist works by playwrights who explore overlooked areas of humanity. Our debut production, 'Other People's Teeth', was performed at Brighton Fringe, Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and Playmill 18 at the King's Head Theatre. The show explored violence and morality through the eyes of a hit-woman, and received a number of 4 star reviews.
