Welcome to Golden Bough Theatre

At Golden Bough Theatre, we create immersive performances that spark curiosity, imagination, and deep engagement with the world around us. Inspired by ancient myths and folklore around nature, our shows transport audiences into magical, interactive experiences where storytelling comes to life in unexpected ways.

We believe in the power of theatre to inspire, educate, and connect. Our performances invite children and adults alike to step beyond the everyday and into a space where creativity flourishes, perspectives shift, and learning feels like an adventure. By blending drama, dance, song,  history, and nature, we help young minds explore big ideas—about themselves, their natural environment, and the stories that shape our natural world.

Whether it's through dynamic performances, workshops, or interactive storytelling, our goal is to cultivate wonder, reflection, and meaningful connections—helping schools and families foster a love for learning, creativity, stewardship of our local green spaces and the arts.
