About Me

Visit our website - www.rhymeswithpurple.net"Rhymes with Purple are starting to find their voice via a form of magical realist cabaret theatre that's both sentimental and serious in its obvious love affair with the business of show, where making a song and dance of things is only half the story."
The HeraldRhymes With Purple Productions is a Glasgow based Theatre Company and entertainment agency committed to pushing the envelope for Scottish arts and culture. We are a new writing company as well as producers of classic work with a contemporary twist. If you like thought provoking theatre with a fun and playful edge then we're the company for you.
We are keen to create artistic links with international theatrical practitioners and create awareness of Scottish arts across the globe so please introduce yourself by leaving a comment.
At present we represent a group of extremely talented burlesque artists, comedians, singers, actors and models. If you are interested in being in our books for our work and that of our clients please do not hesitate to send your headshot and CV to Rhymes with Purple . We maintain a heavy interest and involvement in comedy, burlesque, live music, photography, cabaret and are also the proud producers of Dr Sketchy Glasgow, the largest session of its kind in the world, as well as our production of theatre!
