About us

UK Touring Theatre is an international touring theatre company, founded in 2012 by Adam Redmayne and Felicity Rhys, who together have over 25 years experience of working in the theatre.

UK Touring Theatre specialises in producing exciting new English language adaptations of classic European plays; touring to theatres across the UK, Europe and beyond.

We aim to produce productions for native English speakers in the UK and English speaking audiences overseas, which are accessible yet challenging; with the focus strongly on the acting and the original text. All our actors have trained at the foremost drama schools in the UK and our high quality productions bring the best of British theatre to venues large and small across the world.
