Frantic Assembly
Frantic Assembly is a theatre production company. They have worked in around 40 countries and are widely studied as practitioners for A-Levels in the UK.[1] They were founded in 1994.
Background
Frantic Assembly was formed in 1994 by Scott Graham, Steven Hoggett and Vicki Middleton, three students from Swansea University. None of the three studied Drama or any of the Arts, but were intrigued by theatre and wanted to create their own unique company.[2] They wished to create non-naturalistic pieces, through the use of movement and music, although they have always said that this should never take away from the storyline.[3]
