1) To create a successful brand for a company that can tour productions of classical texts both nationally and internationally
2) To generate and sustain an ensemble of actors who share and develop skills and can explore a 21st century solution to the extinct repertory system
3) To question what constitutes a ‘classical text’ and determine which authors’ works complement and enhance our understanding and enjoyment of Shakespeare and his contemporaries and should be a permanent part of the repertoire
The Faction is an independent theatre company dedicated to innovative revivals of classical texts.
We are keen to form relationships with venues and other companies in London and other parts of the UK and abroad.
