WE ARE CHRONIC INSANITY
A Nottingham based theatre company that creates and facilitates live events in a variety of traditional, found, and digital spaces. We make work accessibly, affordably, sustainably, and inclusively. We seek to change the definition of what theatre can be by playing with form, genre, medium, and technology. We follow Staging Change guidelines, actively provide opportunities for theatre makers from all backgrounds, and record how each production is made so people can learn from them. We can often be found running the UK's first dedicated digital theatre literary department, managing our cave based arts venue underneath Nottingham, The Void, and staging at least 12 shows every 12 months.
DR. JOE STRICKLAND
PRINCIPAL CONSULTANT
Joe Strickland is a theatre maker, digital producer, creative technologist and access consultant with great energy and passion. Since 2012 they have been helping to create all manner of theatre and performance in venues across the country.
They are the Artistic Director & CEO of Chronic Insanity, a Trustee of The King's Hall Trust For The Arts, and the Dramaturg in Residence with the Virtual Immersive Production Studio at the University of Nottingham.
They are the Digital Producer for Puncture The Screen, Chronic Insanity's data driven art and performance festival, and have been the Venue Manager for both Insanity Point, a Nottingham-based pop-up streaming venue for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and The Void, an immersive performance and exhibition space housed in a system of caves in Nottingham.
They are an artist supported by the Nottingham Playhouse and a studio member with Near Now. They have been a BBC New Creative, an AA2A Artist in Residence with Nottingham Trent University, and an Associate Artist with New Perspectives and Nonsuch Studios.
They have a PhD in Future Experience Technologies and Storytelling, which was based at the University of Nottingham's Mixed Reality Lab and partnered with the Horizon CDT, University of Nottingham and the BBC. They specialise in using traditional theatre making techniques and applying them to entertainment technology, such as virtual and augmented reality, as well as recreating physical presence using these technologies.
They are an experienced digital culture and accessibility consultant, having spoken about the subjects internationally and worked with a large range of organisations, including the BFI, Young Vic, AMA, BBC R&D and British Council. They have been on the Access Working Groups at both Nottingham Playhouse and Innovate UK.
In 2022 they won the Off West End award for Best Audio Production for Red Breast by Lotty Holder. In 2023 they won the Digital Culture Network Award for Digital Transformation, as well as being nominated for the Digital Ambassador award. They were also nominated for the Off West End award for Best Director for their work on 24, 23, 22 by Doug Deans.
They are also a multi-award winning magician and an accomplished musician.
