Welcome
Ethos
We celebrate non binary values in race and gender through performance and art.
Purple Theatre look to joyously spread the message of inclusivity and positivity through art, culture and engagingly entertaining theatre.
Our aim is to always achieve excellence in all we do and create a recognised platform for people of colour, gender queer and LGBTQ artists. We started as Purple Theatre in Derby but now reach out across the nation. We go into the community with workshops and shows across the country.
