What We Do

Based in Rochdale, M6 Theatre Company is acknowledged as one of Britain’s leading theatre companies specialising in creating and delivering dynamic, high quality and relevant productions for young audiences.

Our work is renowned for its deep emotional resonance and the dynamic combination of original storytelling, highly visual imagery and evocative music.

Founded in 1977, we create theatre that:

• Ignites the imagination        
• Nurtures the heart        
• Challenges the mind 

Our highly acclaimed productions tour nationally and internationally to theatre venues and festivals, and locally to schools and community settings.  Our rich programme includes inspiring and highly visual work for young audiences, powerful new dramas for older audiences and compelling short single voice plays for specific audiences.

We are currently embarking on an ambitious three-year participatory youth arts programme with a diverse range of Rochdale young people age 8 – 18.  For the next three years, the youth theatre and outreach programme will come under the Act Now! banner.
