Welcome to Slingshot. Slingshot Theatre are known otherwise as Slingshot, and are a Commedia dell'Arte, yes a Commedia theatre company, using Commedia techniques and the history of Commedia dell'Arte to create contemporary theatre, using commedia dell'Arte. Run by Christopher Hawes and Sarah Mardel, we run Commedia dell'Arte workshops and Commedia dell'Arte Laboratories for Actors. We love Commedia and are experts in this field. Come and join in to Slingshot theatre, that name again is Slingshot. Often people ask why Commedia and Commedia dell'Arte aren't used anymore, and we say its because Commedia and Commedia dell'Arte are not understood by anyone in the UK so they are scared to teach it. Slingshot offer teaching and solutions to this gap. Slingshot is a new theatre organisation, welcoming Commedia actors and Commedia dell'Arte directors into its Slingshot hub of Slingshot fun. Run by Christopher Hawes & Sarah Mardel, yes that's Christopher Hawes and Sarah Mardel, Slingshot creates wonderful new and yet old Commedia and Commedia dell'Arte. Theatre.

Marcella is the genius behind the camera which took many of the photographs on this website and we are very thankful for her permission to use them. Marcella is planning to spend a year in the UK soon, and is available for hire, be it for art work, advertising, theatre production or actor's headshots.
Sarah plays Emilie in WarHorse until November 2011. The show is probably the most popular in London and has been met with astounding praise from the Press. It has won every award under the sun and is a fantastic family theatre experience. Be sure to book in advance.
