Creating an international, visual, language of theatre, French based company Compagnie Animotion has been making physical theatre for Deaf and hearing audiences since 2005, and encourages social change and inclusivity through our work.
Specialist in work for children and early years, we create exciting, interdisciplinary and inclusive theatre for all audiences.
Created in 2005 by artistic director Hayli Clifton, the company moved to France in 2009 where it was awarded a six year residence with the town of Livron. We are passionate about creating links in very rural areas and are currently developing a residency space with a program of cultural events.
After twenty years of experience, we have 7 children and family shows, one street show, two aerial dance and circus creations and run workshops for professionals and non-professionals. We also support the professional development of our artists and produce their work in line with our aims to reach all audiences through high quality work.
We continue to help our public be aware of sign language and Deaf culture through our work, but we also now aim to touch any person or communities at risk of social exclusion.
