Commissioned productions
We write, perform and build experiences for your venue and the people who come there. Themed performances, immersive games and living environments for cultural organisations, businesses and private groups.
What we create
The form depends on how you want to meet your audience. These elements can stand alone or form part of the same production.
A character might appear at the castle. A scene might unfold during dinner. We work with scripts, direction, music and performers around the theme you want to bring to life.
For an audience experiencing the story through scenes and performance.
Participants have something to discover, someone to meet and decisions to make. We create roles, tasks and clues and help the group find their way into the game.
For groups who will take part and influence what happens.
People, objects and events belong to the same world. We use set design, craft and performance to create a place where visitors can linger, explore and take part.
For festivals, cultural venues and themed celebrations, for example.
You can commission a single element or ask us to bring a larger experience together. We agree the scope before preparing a quote.
A themed performance, an encounter with a character or a guided activity within your existing programme. We plan the performers and materials for that part.
When you already have an event and want to give one part of it a story of its own.
Several scenes, encounters or tasks are linked together. We develop the story, the participants' journey through it and the preparations needed at the venue.
When the experience will shape an activity, a dinner or part of the day.
Story, setting, performers and practical arrangements are planned as one commission. Our proposal sets out the content, staffing, preparations and responsibilities.
When you want several elements brought together in a commissioned experience.
A selection of our work
A pirate camp at a festival, a story adventure around a castle and live roleplay with young people. Each shows a different way to make a story part of a place.
Festival and living environment
Medieval Week commissioned us to produce the Pirate Camp in 2025 and 2026. A living camp where people, stories and objects belonged to the same world.

Collaboration and story adventure
Children and young people followed a story through puzzles, tasks and encounters around Nynäs Castle. A collaboration with Sörmlands museum and Nynäs Castle.

Previous school production
Roles of their own and shared tasks gave the young participants a place in the story. The photographs show a summer school production from 2024.
Read about the projectHow we work
Start with who you want to reach, where you will be and what you hope to create. You do not need a finished idea.
We discuss the audience, venue, date, time available and budget. Tell us what is already in place and who else is working on the event.
We set out the content and scope, what we prepare and what you need to arrange. Price, performers and practical requirements belong in the same proposal.
Once the commission is agreed, we prepare our parts. Scripts, materials and performers are made ready for delivery.
No. A place, an audience or something you want to tell can be enough to begin with. We help you find a form for the project.
We develop proposals for your venue and discuss the spaces, access and practical requirements. A castle, a school and a conference venue offer different possibilities.
We plan this around the group. A performance can be watched as an audience. In an immersive game, participants receive tasks of their own and support in joining the story.
The price depends on what needs to be created, preparation, performers and the venue requirements. If you have a budget in mind, tell us so we can suggest an appropriate scope. You receive a written quote.
