hello, you!

Paul Virides Productions produces and manages theatre and live entertainment from its base in London.

We create and manage projects that take the people as seriously as the art: we are scrupulously principled, proudly nimble, and commercially and artistically ambitious.

After 11 years of making work, we’ve recently outlined a new roadmap for the next decade, refocusing our priorities towards a 21st century way of making theatre. Paul has also launched a new Substack, You Could Drive A Person Crazy to break all that down.

This summer, PVP will be heading to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe for the company’s 6th (and Paul’s 10th!) year at the Festival, and we’d love to work with you to make your ambitions a reality. Read more about our work at the Fringe here.

About Us

What we Do

  • A man and a woman share an emotional moment in a clinical or hospital setting, with the woman gently holding the man's face and kissing his forehead.

    Producing

    Focusing on quality over quantity, we try not to limit ourselves by scale or genre but instead focus on the most intriguing stories, however they’re told.

  • Two actors on stage, dressed in period costumes, performing in a theatrical play with classical columns, checkered floor, and a cloud backdrop, illuminated with purple lighting.

    General Management

    We manage all of our own shows and workshops as well as those for external producers, looking after every stage of the process alongside trusted partners.

  • Actors performing on stage with a glittering backdrop, featuring a bearded man in the foreground wearing a ruffled shirt and long coat, and four other performers in various costumes in the background.

    Consultancy

    Sometimes you just need a quick helping hand - we provide bespoke, ad hoc services on a consultancy basis, whether you need temporary project support or just some help seeing the wood for the trees.

    new writing & development

    The vast majority of PVP’s work has been in new writing and we have a strong record of developing shows for production, supporting writers, directors and producers with taking the next steps.

  • A woman with reddish-brown hair, wearing a light blue blazer and a dark dress, sitting on a chair with a distressed expression, in a dimly lit room with a brick wall background.

    Investment

    We raise investment commercially for our shows and also occasionally for external productions. We’re particularly excited to hear from people who are galvanised by our vision for the company’s next decade.
