The Autumn 2024 tour of ‘Wild’ is over - and what a brillant tour it’s been!

Wild begins its tour across the Black Country today. Our first show is tonight at 7:30pm at Brierley Hill Civic Hall.

Black Country Touring worked together with Bearwood Community Hub, Borough of Sanctuary Sandwell, The Space and poet Bohdan Piasecki to create four short films that challenge the negative narrative around migration and foster empathy by sharing authentic stories from local sanctuary seekers who have built new lives in Sandwell.

The results are four short films and four beautiful poems.

Meet our creative team for our new production, Wild!

We are thrilled to announce our new theatre production, 'Wild'!

It’s 1958 in a drop forge in Oldbury. A wild cat strike is in progress. A faulty machine has injured a worker and it has brought the factory to a halt. The cleaner is looking for the resulting mess to clear up and an irate businessman turns up looking for his missing consignment of hammers. There’s more going on here than meets the eye…

We are thrilled to announce that Black Country Touring and our partners Spectra and The Parakeet have been awarded £73,569 from the Inclusive Communities Fund, which is managed by the Heart of England Community Foundation!

Thimblemill Library was proud to welcome Seven Circles for a week-long residency exploring ideas for their new show ‘Club Ninja’. They held two free workshops for children aged 3-7 and their families, inviting them to play, dance and explore with them. The residency was a part of the Rural Touring Dance Initiative.

We are looking for actors and actor-musicians with strong devising skills to be part of an ensemble cast for ‘Wild’, a new production coming in Autumn 2024.
