The Arts Council

Companies

For over 15 years Monkeyshine have been creating a beautifully crafted brand of theatre that is vibrant, ingenious, bold and playful in spirit. We believe that there is a thread that binds us all together and we aim to make theatre that creates a space for people of all ages, to come together as equals. To explore, question and celebrate all that it is to be human. We make theatre that delves into the sacred realms of childhood and imagination. Inspired by the power of the natural world, the depth of myth and legend and the structure of ritual and celebration. We make theatre for the whole tribe. So whether you are a child, a parent, a grandparent, or simply a person, Monkeyshine makes theatre for you. Monkeyshine is a rural theatre company based in Ireland. Celebrated nationally and internationally for its dynamic, adventurous and quirky style.

Touring Policy

Monkeyshine tours nationally and internationally to a variety of venues. The company also creates bespoke and site specific work in outdoor and unusual venues. Monkeyshine is currently developing The Vagabond, it’s very own wandering, independent theatre space.
