Theatre Beyond Borders

Foreign Affairs are a contemporary theatre company founded with a strong social and cultural mandate.

With a multinational cast, they emphasise translating plays never before staged in English, performing each production in unusual and unexpected spaces.

Foreign Affairs challenge both the traditional norms of theatre whilst seeking to cross borders with their strongly internationalist outlook.

We worked with Foreign Affairs to conceive a completely new brand identity, defining them as the ‘Theatre Beyond Borders’.

The identity, evocative of unusual spaces becomes a canvas, both flexible and adaptable, whilst always distinctive and ownable.

Posters hero cast-members; their images playfully breaking the frame, lit by a palette which celebrates blending and infusion.

“Thank you for this amazing journey, helping us tell our story and position ourselves to grow stronger. This has had a huge impact in allowing us to step up our game. We couldn't have done it without you."

Camila França and Dane Trine Garrett,
Founders, Foreign Affairs

We established a new voice for the company, bold and uncompromising, cementing their position as a clear and contemporary voice in the traditional world of theatre.
