About Us
We are risk-takers! Our work pushes boundaries
We deliver unique and innovative New Zealand theatre with high production values.
Our works mix rich poetic language with music, visual arts, puppetry, illusion and choreographed movement. Theatre is the perfect space to incorporate all art forms.
We are risk-takers! Our work pushes boundaries. We want to excite and surprise audiences to what is possible theatrically.
We possess a deep love and passion for the theatre art form.
We believe that theatre should be a transformative experience – audiences should go into the theatre space and come away seeing the world in a new way….or at least seeing the possibility that the world around us is not always as it seems.
Our Founders
Ben Crowder and Carl Bland have been collaborating, on a project-to-project basis, for 15 years, and between them, they have over 50 years of experience in the New Zealand theatre landscape. In 2017 they merged their two companies into ‘Nightsong’.
