Friends Tim Webb MBE, Claire de Loon and Max Reinhardt founded the company in 1981. The first production was Exploding Punch & Judy. Oily Cart has produced and toured over 80 original productions to theatres, arts venues, schools, hospitals and hospices. Performances often take place in unusual settings, such as hydrotherapy pools, trampolines or up in the air. The company's name is a play on the name of the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company.
