Platform Theatre

Platform 4 is a national performance and visual arts company based in Winchester, Hampshire, in the UK. Founded in 1997, artistic director Catherine Church oversees the projects of Platform 4 and their associate artists. Longterm creative design partners for Platform 4 include Su Houser, who has designed many of their most recent projects, Simon Plumridge, designer and director, previously of the Ding Foundation (BAC supported artists) and composer and musician Jules Bushell. Platform 4 are Associate Artists at Lighthouse Poole's Centre for the Arts and are consultants in the venue's recent review process. Its work is designer-led and often embraces this as starting points for work which is characterised by the visual and sonic worlds being as important as text. The work of Platform 4 was documented as part of Dramaturgy and Performance, by Cathy Turner and Synne Behrndt. The Memory Points Book was written as a documentation of the company's long running Memory Points Project.
