Threshold Theatre Company was created in 2016 in Sheffield. They debuted at Platform Performance Festival 2016, showcasing an extract from director and writer Katie Coen's original play 'The Growing Pains of the Mantle Family Living Room'. Since then they have explored the company's artistic identity with a few other small projects and have developed and adapted "Growing Pains' into a full length play. With the company gaining momentum we decided that the next step would be to take 'Growing Pains' to The Edinburgh Fringe Festival in the summer of 2017! We are raising funds for tech, set and staging costs - any small donations are very much appreciated!

Preparations for the Fringe have been going well, however our tiny company is unable to completely fund the venture and so we are asking for a little financial assistance from our friends and supporters.

The Mantles have issues that probably need to be addressed, only problem being none of them talk to each other, not properly anyway. However, the family’s arguments are brought to a halt and strained relationships covered up when their well-to-do neighbour unexpectedly visits. And on top of all their other struggles the neighbour has cats. A humorous exploration of relationships and communication in a dysfunctional family home.

PERKS! Below are some little treats we'd like to send you!
