Born in a Taxi

 

Acclaimed independent theatre company Born in a Taxi is currently using Woods Street Arts Space as a rehearsal venue. 

Recognised nationally and internationally for producing highly physical, contemporary and participatory works in wide-ranging performance contexts, from theatres, site-specific and public spaces and festival contexts that focus on real-time co-creation. Born in a Taxi is renowned for combining the experimental with the accessible, masterfully mixing serious intent with humour, and sophisticated clowning with contemporary performance with a focus on real-time creation.

Led by Co-Artistic Directors Penny Baron and Carolyn Hanna, Taxi collaborates with a diverse team of artists, production staff and a pool of performers trained in the company’s performance methodology, Ensemble Movement Improvisation (EMI) on any given project. EMI underpins the company's process, performances and ethos.

Taxi is increasingly turning their attention to social impact projects through deep engagement with a mission to unite audiences and participants in the spirit of play!
