Ellie Harrison

As well as being a freelance artist, Ellie Harrison founded Hello Friends Theatre in 2006. The company is ever striving to create a perfect replica of the subtly theatrical, seductive world the media presents… but in a live medium where there are no edits or flattering angles. Everything is in shot. We want to find the common ground between the audience and the performer. What makes us both laugh? What makes us both unnervingly uncomfortable? What we see on the TV; in the pub; on the bus? The company makes work that responds to the opinions and interests of our audiences, and acknowledges our differences as freely as we acknowledge our common ground. Hello Friends Theatre are currently touring How To Be Well Dressed and Famous to studio spaces across the country
