Who We Are
Who We Are
Matipo Arts was founded by sisters Sally and Georgia Hardcastle. In April 2021 we formally registered as a Community Interest Company and brought on board three amazing Non-Executive Directors. We strive to create work that subverts the norms of theatre, while keeping it accessible and entertaining. We are dedicated to new material and to having fun. Come and join the family.
