About Chol Theatre

We are Chol. A dynamic and socially conscious theatre company and registered charity based in Yorkshire since its founding in 1989. We work with children and young people from early years to early career across Yorkshire and the North, prioritising work in Kirklees, Barnsley and Sheffield. Our approach is entirely collaborative, working in everyday community and educational settings to co- create stories that are rooted in communities and local heritage. We are committed to nurturing the next generation of creative change makers, supporting children and young people to know and understand that they can be active in making positive change happen in their own lives and in their communities. The cornerstones of Chol’s work: Education: We advocate for care and creativity at the heart of schools to ensure all children and young people have the opportunity to take part in arts-based learning and new experiences. Community connection: Inspired and contextualised by the intercultural community we’re part of, we devise projects that tackle inequity. We are dedicated to making the arts accessible to everyone. The Cholavan, our mobile creative vehicle, supports us to reach more people in everyday spaces. Partnerships: Collaboration is key to our mission. We seek out and nurture relationships with libraries, museums, schools, arts organisations, community spaces, universities, and Local Cultural Education Partnerships. Innovation and sector development: We offer alternative pathways to careers in the arts, with a long-term goal of increasing diversity in the sector. We work as national consultants and regional leaders in arts based training for teachers and artists to share quality practice through evaluation and research.
