Persona Collective transforms unconventional spaces into immersive worlds of imagination, memory and play.
We work across theatre, dance, installation art, interactive media, electronic music and ecological projects, creating productions that are unique and shaped by the character of their space, the voices of the community, and a multidisciplinary spirit of innovation.
Responding to past histories, present realities and speculative futures, we unlock hidden potential, inviting audiences to experience places and storytelling in unexpected ways.
Our productions have inhabited London’s heritage buildings, industrial districts, community hubs and entire neighbourhoods, inviting audiences into multi-sensory encounters that blur the boundaries between fiction and reality.
How We Work
Participatory Co-Creation
Collaborating with communities through workshops, partnerships, and educational programmes, people co-create productions, uncover hidden histories, and amplify underrepresented voices, while reclaiming public and heritage spaces.
Multidisciplinary Collaboration
Persona Collective brings together, theatre makers, choreographers, musicians, designers, architects, filmmakers, technologists, scientists, and educators to experiment with storytelling, design, technology and audience engagement.
Collaborations include commissioned work, cultural partners, and ongoing projects with forward-thinking organisations. With Unknown Species, an electronic music label producing events under the ethos 'We dance to save the wildlife,' the label brings underground and festival artists, while we amplify the experience through spatial design, visuals, and storytelling in non-traditional venues.
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Productions minimise waste, reuse materials, and make the most of existing spaces, reducing environmental impact and costs. Environmental care informs collaborations and extends into ecological installations, community gardens, and programmes that empower communities and drive real action for the planet.
What We Offer
Persona Collective transforms spaces and ideas into experiences. While we continue to produce our own immersive work, we also bring the visions of other people and organisations to life, combining site-specific expertise, multidisciplinary collaboration, and a network of artists, designers, makers, technologists, and performers.
