Complicité is an international touring theatre company led by Artistic Director and co-founder, Simon McBurney. The company creates work that strengthens human interconnection, using the complicity between performer and audience that is at the heart of the theatrical experience. Complicité works across art forms; believing theatre, opera, film, radio, installation, publication and participatory arts can all be sites for the collective act of imagination. Founded in 1983, they have won over 50 major theatre awards worldwide, and played in more than 40 countries.
Alongside Simon McBurney’s work, the company supports artists through their ‘Mudlarks’ strand; widening access and pro-actively seeking to support talented artists who are under-represented in the theatre sector.
Learning and engagement are central to their work and their award-winning creative engagement programme includes professional development, work in schools and colleges, and participatory projects with a range of communities.
