About

High-quality shows in small rooms.

Glitter Theatrical is a theatre production company based in London, founded in 2018 by Lukas McCabe and Mikolaj Chrobot to produce, co-produce and facilitate new writing for the London fringe. We specialise in musical theatre for intimate venues, with a portfolio built on new work and queer voices.

Our aim is simple: raise the standard of what a fringe production can be. That means shows that challenge what’s possible in small rooms with small companies, a professional and fairly paid environment for everyone working on them, and a platform for independent artists with original ideas for chamber pieces and recordings.
