ABOUT POWERHOUSE

Our work also acts as research into radical theatre-making. We have an ongoing commitment to developing anti-capitalist, radical art that acts as a protest to linear and hierarchical concepts of time, love, relation, language and common sense.

 

By creating ‘othered’ art that prioritises anti-transactional practices of care and friendship in its creation and concept, we aim to ‘imagine otherwise’ outside of what ‘art’ is deemed practical or valuable to systems of racial capitalism.

 

Drawing from frameworks of Black Feminist Theory, Queer Theory, and Radical Theory, we make art to research the radical possibilities of creating and platforming imaginaries that stand at odds with systems of oppression and visualise a future of freedom. 

We will reclaim the grounds of what is constituted as ‘reasonable’ and consequently rewarded and we will create unreasonable art.

 

Powerhouse is a feminist, queer, neurodiverse creative company specialising in theatre and short film. We are committed to amplifying silenced and marginalised voices in unexpected ways that creates a space of reflection, challenge, and contemplation.

 

It is our mission to start a conversation - not one that necessarily leads to a consensus, but one that allows people to get used to one another and the variety of challenges that shape our realities.
