ANGEL SHED THEATRE COMPANY 

We are an inclusive theatre company for young people in Islington. We give access to the transformative power of participation in the performing arts, irrespective of ability or income. We enable greater inclusion for those likely to be otherwise excluded: those with disabilities, mental health issues, or disadvantaged backgrounds. We do this through workshops, performances and community outreach.
