About Us

The Unspeakable Story 2005

“The First Physical Theatre Company is a testament of action - a declaration of intent amongst artists working in South Africa. It teases together the dynamic elements of theatre ... dance, music, mime, design, voice, song and movement collide or come together in an atmosphere that is exhilarating and always illuminating. First Physical charts the course of our lives ... it has the power to heal and transform. It is a document ... an artistic document that reveals life in South Africa.” (Gary Gordon, Artistic Director, September 1997)
