We want to create and collaborate on productions which "mean" something - something more than the air and time it occupies.
At Flying Bridge we are determined make theatre with a social conscience, that is political with a small 'p'.
We are driven to make dramatic work which appeals to all sub-groups of human division and which inspires us all to see our commonality.

William Huggins - Producer/DesignerI graduated from LAMDA in 2001, as an actor. Some of my theatre credits include “A Few Good Men” starring Rob Lowe at the Haymarket Theatre in London’s West End and a national tour of “Man and Boy” starring David Suchet which transferred to the West End.
I've been a producer, writer and director on various creative endeavours across a range of different media. I trained as a computer generated special effects artist at the prestigeous Escape Studios, completing the 2D compositing course. Working with “Made In Me Ltd”, a digital agency specialising in educational new media, I project managed, produced, directed and edited over 200 interactive e-book apps, working with companies such as Disney, Penguin Random House, Walker Books, Scholastic and TATE; I engaged and directed artists such as the late great Rik Mayall, the alive and well Tony Robinson, Richard E. Grant, Tamsin Grieg and Hugh Bonneville. I relish creative collaboration and am a true believer that art and profit need not be mutually exclusive. I am the author of Between the Crosses, Flying Bridge's latest production which is currently in development. |
