The Blahs
We are Theatre Company Blah Blah Blah (The Blahs), a Leeds-based company.
For 36 years, we have been creating high quality theatre and creative experiences for children and young people all about the things that matter to them. Passionate about exploring stories, not just telling them, we do not shy away from big or challenging subjects and ideas. We take our work to wherever children and young people need it, including schools, theatres, community settings and museums.
