SMOKESCREEN PRODUCTIONS create impact theatre, working with national charities to bring contemporary issues to life in cinematic style, supporting dynamic theatrical performance with multimedia techniques.

Smokescreen was awarded grants via the Chancellor's LIBOR fund to create 'Shell Shock', an adaptation of Neil Blower Watkin's biographical novel. Supporting charities such as Help For Heroes, Combat Stress, The Armed Forces Network, Heads Together and Time to Change, the play has toured to festivals, theatres and colleges in the UK, New York, Australia and New Zealand as well as 'behind the wire' performances at Plymouth, Saffron Waldron, Aldershot and Auckland.

'Mengele', inspired by the novel 'Right to Live' by Philip Wharam, is endorsed by the Amud Aish Memorial Museum in New York and was created with advice from the Holocaust Educational Trust. Following 5* reviewed performances at the Edinburgh Fringe, both plays were selected as 'Encore Winners' to transfer to the SoHo Playhouse in New York.

'Mengele' sold out at both Edinburgh and Adelaide Fringe 2018 where 'Shell Shock' won Best Solo Show. EdFringe 18 also saw the opening of 'All Change', a poignant comedy, presenting a "deft, light touch" take on living with dementia;"impeccably judged... brutally insightful" (Fringe Guru). All three plays were presented at EdFringe '18.

'Shell Shock' has completed a long tour of Australia from Brisbane to Melbourne to Sydney for the Invictus Games.

Smokescreen Prods is affiliated to the film production company Smokescreen Visuals. 'Revelation', a feature-length drama, is currently in development.

A new play imagining a 21st century Judas premiered early in 2019 at The Adelaide Fringe in support of Amnesty International in repertory with All Change, performed in support of Dementia Australia.
