A London theatre company

Consonant Productions

We can, we must, we shall be heard.

We make theatre about the things people are not supposed to say, and try to make an audience laugh while it is being said.

Our next production, I’m not little, I’m Barbara, a solo play about surviving domestic abuse, opens in north London in March 2027.

About us

Consonant Productions was founded by Barbara Mariposa in 2026. The name carries both meanings: the sounds the throat shapes, and what it is to be in agreement with someone.

We are interested in work that is funny about serious things, that uses music and live performance, and that gives an audience somewhere to go afterwards.
