To get clear what drives Solid Rainbow, some of my collaborators and I got around a table, started to chat, chatted some more and then some more. The result is, in corporate-speak, our vision and values. We like to call them the ‘heartbeat’ of Solid Rainbow.

What we’re about

Writing and producing inspiring musical theatre that touches the heart, uplifts the soul and brings joy.

What we’re aiming for

A portfolio of shows performed around the world, engaging local communities

What underpins our work

The core principle:

Our stories make a difference to people’s lives.

Creativity

We write compelling stories of human interest and emotional change. We explore innovative approaches to theatre and love to work with people who are ‘leading-edge’ creatives in their field.

Potential

We encourage casts and creative teams to stretch their imagination, reach beyond their comfort zone and achieve their potential.

Respect

We treat everyone with respect and fairness. This means accepting and embracing individual differences while focusing on the common goal.

Commercial

We organise and plan to make profits so that we can invest in future productions, continue to innovate and extend our reach.

Community

We share our work with local communities. Because it’s not all about making money but enabling our stories to inspire as wide an audience as possible.
