About the Spaniels

The Spaniel In The Works Theatre Company was formed in 2000, by six performers/writers with a wealth of experience in different areas of theatre.

The aim of the Spaniels is to attract an audience who would not regularly go to the theatre, bringing good quality theatrical entertainment to as wide an audience as possible.

Since 2003, Spaniel In The Works has developed a unique training style, creating day long performance based events to train professionals from social services, health care, the police and youth offending teams.

With a strong background in museum theatre, Spaniel In The Works work for a number of museums including the Victoria and Albert Museum, National Portrait Gallery, The Wallace Collection, Bank of England museum, Apsley House and Stroud Museum In The Park.

Performances include "Threads of Life" playing manic depressive nylon inventor, Wallace Carothers. His most notable television appearance involved playing his armpit.
