TELLING STORIES TO MAKE THE WORLD LESS SH*T
Theatre for geeks. Inspired by movies, pop-culture, and big ideas to make the world a little bit less sh*t.
We are an award-winning Hull theatre company, commissioning provocative and playful writers and some of the best artists across the UK to create work that playfully discusses big ideas to broker vital conversations.
We're inspired by Pixar, Image Comics, Netflix, Middle Child Theatre, John McGrath, Joss Whedon, Joan Littlewood, and Brecht.
Our dream is to develop a theatre audience for the Netflix generation. An audience that will be as excited for a night in their local theatre as they would be at the cinema or a stand-up comedy gig.
Silent Uproar is a supported company of Hull Truck Theatre, supported by the Hull Independent Producer Initiative (HIPI) and have been part of New Diorama Theatre’s Supported Company Scheme (2016-2017).
