Every year, dozens of boys are involved in school productions in the Edward Alleyn Theatre, promenade or site-specific performances within the wider College campus, or at James Allen’s Girls’ School, with whom we frequently collaborate. Productions are directed and designed to exacting professional standards, often supported by our director in residence and specialist practitioners.
