Profile Information

What I do... (Actor, director, designer, teacher etc?)
Imploding Fictions is a young international performance collective with a passion for bold and unusual performance, irreverent dramaturgies and plays with a rare production history that explode the confines of traditional theatre.

Imploding Fictions is based in London, but tours on a regular basis and has recently performed in Egypt, Norway and Italy (winner of Premio Internazionale Claudio Gora for best experimental company in Rome) and given workshops and seminars in Serbia and Germany.

The company's projects are diverse (theatre, live art, media art, youth theatre etc.) but at the core of each new endeavour is the desire to affect, provoke and entertain a live gathering and a love to tackle ambitious and unwieldy plays and devise strategies for the representation of new theatrical forms and structures.

The artistic directors of Imploding Fictions are Philip Thorne and Oystein U. Brager.
The company is currently associated with Company of Angels (www.companyofangels.co.uk)

Imploding Fictions

Imploding Fictions' production of HAMLETMACHINE at the Frascati Theatre Amsterdam, reviewed for INSTED by Alexandra Müller

One of the hardest things is to get people working in theatre excited by a performance. Especially with a text predicted to be “undirectable” like Heiner Muellers Hamletmachine. And especially when two just graduating young directors from London do such a piece.
But in Mondays performance at Frascati of Muellers piece directed by Imploding Fictions (Philip Thorne and Øystein Ulsberg Brager) it just happened: nearly one hall of largely young directors, actors, dramaturges, producers etc. got caug… Continue
