Art, theatre and performance.

Engaging communities.

Getting people talking.

The Cognito People are a small collective of young artists, writers and performers based in the UK. We use art, theatre and performance to create innvoative experiences that engage a wide range of communities, exploring and challenging current issues.

​

Since 2012 we've created installation art, supported young writers, devised performance work and facilitated theatre-in-education worshops. We've challenged mental health stigma, worked within LGBT communities, and delivered work in primary and secondary schools.

​

This is just the start.

"The aftershock of this performance is enduring. This work is not only entertaining, but completely necessary in a world where these things are so rarely talked about. "
