ENCOMPASS TURNS 5!
And lastly Encompass Productions recently turned 5 years old on the last night of our sci fi smash hit Stasis by Emily Holyoake. It was very fitting for this great play to see us into the next phase of the company, and the high praise from critics and sell out shows was a nice bonus!
If you've been to any of our productions, seen any of our films, listened to our podcasts, been to our events or have worked with us - THANK YOU! It is your continued support that drives us forward. Encompass stands for ambition, inclusion and accomplishment - but none of that would be possible without you. Here's to the next 5 years!
