Anvil Productions

ANVIL PRODUCTIONS
An organisation with departments covering every aspect of performance and production.

THE ANVIL TOURING THEATRE COMPANY
Specialises in encouraging New Writing and touring Traditional Pantomime, Classic Tales and in particular Shakespeare to all sorts of venues. We have online booking facilities and perform indoors and outside - in state of the art theatres to scout huts, from Street Theatre or small playing fields to magnificent monuments - any Empty Space.


We offer workshops to schools and drama groups anywhere in the UK.

We have a special approach to Shakespeare - making it easily understood and exciting but we never compromise the text. Our patron is the renowned writer and broadcaster Professor David Crystal who is a fellow of Shakespeare's Globe in London. David takes an active interest in all our work and attends performances on a regular basis.

PROPS (North Wales) THEATRE SCHOOL - Performance and Production Skills
On our Vocational Training Course we train people from all over the world to become professionals confident in every aspect of performance and production in theatre and on film. Students may be part time or full time and can register for one, two or three years.

We offer Nationally Accredited Qualifications up to Level 5.
We aim to offer AFFORDABLE on the job training which will equip our students for real life in the wider entertainment industry.

HAFILMS is our film company.
Hafilms makes documentary films, corporate films and show reels. Every performance by students at Props and the Anvil Company is also recorded as a record of work.

Latest News - we are currently developing a documentary about the World War I Nurse Edith Cavell who was executed by the Germans. The nurse's charity Nurse Aid was set up in her memory and will benefit directly from the profits of the finished film.


LIBERTY COSTUMES is the wardrobe department for Anvil Productions.
With over 2000 costumes we can usually meet any request for detailed costumes.
As well as costumes and vintage clothes already on the rails we frequently make or adapt costumes to suit particular needs. We do not, however offer full sets for specific shows.
