Welcome to LegalAliens Theatre, where the stage is a platform for celebrating original voices, exploring new perspectives across borders and cultures. 

​

Based in Haringey, we are an international ensemble led by migrant artists. Since 2012 we've been committed to amplifying the voices of migrants and refugees, demonstrating theatre’s transformative potential for both communities and artists, researching the intersection between international and migrant, and positioning ourselves as pioneers in our industry. 

We make thought-provoking and entertaining theatre that reflects the world we live in, drawing on our artists’ rich, layered and original experiences to create unique and captivating performances. Our shows are imaginative and unafraid to tackle sensitive themes but with irony, humanity, and theatricality, blending Brecht's socio-political theatre with a captivating visual approach.

Since 2018, we have created a free, safe, weekly space at The Engine Room in Tottenham Hale for migrants and refugees to make theatre together. This project, unique in the U.K., has earned us Theatre of Sanctuary status.
