A new theatre group based in Islington. You can catch our first play, No One Sees the Video by Martin Crimp at the Rosemary Branch Theatre from the 21st May to the 31st.
The Bunbury Banter Theatre Company was born from a desire to make theatre accessible to all, but particularly those who are not aware of its power, entertainment and diverse nature!

Movement, sound, spoken word... Anything goes!
