Strange-Twig is a nationally touring UK based Theatre Company specialising in site-specific story based circus, energetically bombastic theatre productions and madcap walkabouts.
Strange-Twig Theatre Company was founded in 2005 by Robert Coke-Woods, initially with a small group of performers from Bretton Hall but fast growing to include industry professionals from across the country. In these early years Rob established the company’s reputation for staging energetic and engaging outdoor performances for a wide variety of audiences, and when Penny joined in 2010 as a regular collaborator they also began to expand the company’s practice to include new and interesting technologies alongside acrobatics and circus arts to make every performance consistently eye-catching and always fresh and new.
With the expansion in scope also came an extension in size for the company. As of 2026 Strange-Twig engaged over twenty freelance artists as well as community cast members from partner organisations covering all manner of disciplines from singing, dancing, stage combat, puppetry, acrobatics, fire arts, aerialism, and clowning as well as stage management, technical and other back stage professionals.
As a company we constantly strive for accessibility in everything we do. Our company integrates and is proud to represent performers, technical and stage crew from the LGBTQ+ community as well as individuals with chronic conditions or who have various neurodivergent or spectrum conditions. We make a point of including relaxed performances for the benefit of audiences who might otherwise be overstimulated or might need a different environment from the traditional theatre formality whenever possible.
