Poorboy/The Bell Rock Co.

Poorboy/The Bell Rock Co. are Scotland's collaboration specialists. They make new, transporting stories and revisit classics on stages and across the most unlikely of sites. Created by their Permanent Ensemble and Visiting Artists from a variety of disciplines, their works are adventures that remind an audience they are alive - part performance, part experience and always engaging, unexpected and unique.
Unashamedly wedded to story and experience Poorboy/The Bell Rock Co welcome their audiences onto a emotional rollercoaster in mischievous company and bring a whole new meaning to the phrase 'going to a play'.
