F00lishPe0ple offer over thirty years of experience in creating fantastic worlds and stories.

We combine ritual, mythology, shamanism, drama therapy, strategic forecasting and open source collaboration in the creation of our work. Each project takes form by merging text, performance, sound, art, light and the building or landscape itself to create dreamlike worlds that living characters inhabit.

We offer site-specific, original ideas to create unique stories for each project, including extraordinary production designs to transform all kinds of venues and landscapes. We also adapt other original work on request.

F00lishPe0ple is one of the early pioneers of immersive theatre in the UK and we have utilised transmedia within our work since our inception. Founder and artistic director John Harrigan has developed our unique theatre practice Theatre of Manifestation, which we adopt in our work, workshops, talks and classes.

In 2011 we have extended our expertise in creating stories through film and immersive live cinema experiences.

We have worked in partnership with the BBC, the Arcola Theatre, The Horse Hospital, the Institute of Contemporary Arts and Conway Hall Ethical Society and we have been hired to headline the theatre aspect of artistic festivals such as Wilderness Festival in 2015 and Byline Festival in 2018.

F00lishPe0ple have toured internationally, performing in the United States and the Netherlands.
