Devising Surgeries

Bruiser Theatre Company is widely studied as a chosen practitioner across all major exams boards. An aspect of many courses is interpreting a piece of theatre in the style of a chosen practitioner, and many post-primary schools often study the work of the company and our Artistic Director, Lisa May

We can assist you with your own key texts and interpreting them in the Bruiser style. Our team of experienced Bruiser facilitators are available for consultation sessions and devising surgeries on GCSE, Alevel and BTEC performance pieces; devised or scripted.
