On Our Silver Anniversary…
This year LynchPin celebrates its 25th anniversary. Over the years we have worked with a host of brilliant creatives - actors, playwrights, directors, designers and more - and many have given us warm wishes on our birthday. Below are a few of the kind tributes we have received:
“Congratulations on 25 years of creating and producing engaging, thought-provoking and memorable theatre, testament indeed to the huge array of talent that work with the company.”
“The time I had with LynchPin was formative and wonderful. I still utilize its practices to this day, not only in my creative work, but in daily life. The attention to presence, vision and openness is something I’ll never forget.”
“A heartfelt thank you for allowing us to share the journey with you. Working and playing with you all has been a significant and joyous part of our acting story, and we're beyond delighted that you are continuing to go from strength to strength!”
“Huge Congratulations! You've provided me, and many others, with the opportunity to take part in so many wonderful readings and productions that have kept my creative juices flowing, with a lot of fun along the way. Your recent successes are testament to your vision and hard work!”
