BRITE THEATER

Multi-award winning European theatre company 

Brite Theater is an independent theatre group founded by Kolbrún Björt Sigfúsdóttir in 2006. We are especially interested in audience and site specific work, using participation, direct address, shared lighting, promenade and unconventional theatre spaces. 

We currently have two young writers under commission for a public places project 
WE ARE STILL HERE / WE ARE ALWAYS HERE . Our first writer, Stella Green, responded to the theme creating (INSTRUCTIONS FOR A) GHOST DISCO,  performable anywhere 6th of June until the 6th of July. Our second writer is Ink Asher Hemp, whose work Bubblebath Is Not a Rebellion went live here on Friday 2nd of September and stayed live for a month. 

Read more about our shows here. Deliverance, Hamlet (an experience) and Richard III (a one-person show) are all available for touring.
