If anyone could do it, it's probably not right for us

Inside Out Productions are storytellers.

Specialising in sophisticated, visual, high impact work that utilises cutting edge technology and captures a live audience.  The work communicates and transform audiences, working in environments that range from the intimate to the spectacular.

Inside Out was formed in London in 1983 by company directors Mike Mizrahi and Marie Adams, where the founding members trained.  The backbone of the work they produced lies in the techniques and philosophies of Visual Theatre.  Creating self-devised work that toured Great Britain, New Zealand and Australia Inside Out’s visual theatre was a celebrated part of the cultural landscape.

"Mike Mizrahi and Marie Adams are the greatest treasures of this nation’s theatre "
