DV8 Physical Theatre

Dear Friends,
Lloyd Newson has retired and consequently, DV8 Physical Theatre has come to an end.

We would like to thank our audiences, friends, presenters, co-commissioners and funders (especially Arts Council England), who have supported DV8's work since 1986. Most importantly we would like to acknowledge our remarkable artists, technical teams, administrative staff and Board members; to whom we will forever be indebted.

DV8's award winning films (Dead Dreams of Monochrome Men, Strange Fish and Enter Achilles) are available via Digital Theatre. DV8's film 'The Cost of Living' can be seen free of charge from 14th March 2025 on DV8's YouTube website

DV8's Archive materials from the 1980's, including recordings of stage shows, are available to view at the Theatre Collection, University of Bristol.
