WELCOME TO
​MORTAL FOOLS


A multi-award winning theatre, drama and creative learning charity.
Based in Northumberland, we co-create compelling, dynamic, socially-relevant, and high-quality theatre, film and creative projects - with children, young people, and communities. 

Our purpose is to support people to have better quality inter-personal relationships with one another, and to use theatre and drama-based activities as a methodology to achieve this; helping people connect, have fun, learn and grow together.

We work with thousands of children and young people every year, mostly in the North East of England. We are passionate advocates for theatre and film created for and by young people - and believe it should be recognised and supported as the important art form that it is.
Our productions  explore the realities of the world we are living in now, from the perspective of the young people we work with - inviting positive change. 

WHAT'S NEW?

​Team Mortal Fool are delighted to present our Impact Report 2022/23 – it’s downloadable now in various formats.

The voices of 75 young people from Northumberland and the North East come together in a collection of 6 poignant and purposeful film shorts, created by Mortal Fools Youth Theatre with Fly Girl Films and Mortal Fools’ associate artists.
Their realities, lived experiences, inner worlds, and fantastical dreams - interwoven with the positive changes they want to make in the world on film!

The film version of our 2022 FLUX show is available to watch now. Flux is a positive and empowering film, grounded in the reality of life for young people exploring their identity and making decisions about their future. Figuring it out and fitting in; what makes you, you? 12 unique young voices come together on film, to explore what it means to question your identity in a world that feels determined to put you in a box.
