Fevered Sleep was founded in 1996 by David Harradine and Samantha Butler.
We make new work in performance, publication and visual art, for children and for adults.
All our work is design-led and devised collaboratively. The work is grounded in ideas and in research, not in form, and each project might be radically different from what has gone before it. We create environments and encounters that allow audiences to make a discovery about themselves, or to see the world in new and unexpected ways.
We show our work across the UK and internationally, through touring, and through partnerships with a wide range of venues. We are based at the Young Vic in London, where we are an associate company. Our work is produced in association with Fuel.
Fevered Sleep’s Artistic Director, David Harradine, is Research Fellow in Performance at the University of Winchester. His research project, Written with Light, explores the connections between light, photography, and landscape. To find out more, go to Written with Light.
David has recently been appointed as Artist in Residence at the University of Brighton, where he is collaborating on a project about climate change. You can follow the project HERE.
