Background on the company
Look Left Look Right is a documentary-theatre company. We make vivid performances by recording conversations with people and reflecting significant moments in their lives - moments the company believe should be documented and reflected upon.
Aiming for a neutral, transparent medium we prioritise people's words and language. The ethos of the company is to look left, look right - which means we always try to listen to as many different viewpoints as we can.
Based in East London the company formed in 2005. Our last production Yesterday Was A Weird Day, Reflections on July 7th 2005 enjoyed rave reviews and sell out runs at the Edinburgh Fringe and Battersea Arts Centre.
