Smokescreen Productions

Founded by producer, writer, director and performer Tim Marriott, Smokescreen Productions creates contemporary, issue-based theatre for professional performance. The company frequently develops new work in partnership with national and international charities.
 

The Approach

Smokescreen creates powerful, engaging drama that sparks conversation, encourages audiences to view issues from fresh perspectives, and aims to shift attitudes with lasting impact. Our work is:

• grounded in detailed research;

• developed in collaboration with charity partners;

• informed by residencies, site visits and direct engagement with subject matter.

Through this process, we raise awareness and illuminate challenging subjects within theatrical experiences that remain compelling, accessible and entertaining.
 

Performance Style and Impact

Our dynamic presentation style blends audiovisual elements, live on-stage action and a vibrant score to create an immediate, modern and gripping atmosphere. This approach helps attract new audiences to thought-provoking drama while delivering high production standards on limited budgets and supporting the outreach and engagement goals of our charity partners.
