Discover Genome
Welcome to Genome Theatre, where luxury, innovation, and creativity collide to redefine the very essence of entertainment. Our name, 'Genome Theatre,' is inspired by the Greek word 'γίνομαι,' which means 'to come into being' or 'to happen'.
At Genome Theatre, we're on a quest to craft immersive experiences that are not only inspiring but also boldly innovative and deeply meaningful. We embrace the unusual and the unexplored, all while maintaining an unwavering commitment to luxury, adding a playful twist to the extraordinary. Our creative spark comes from our journey of continuous self-discovery and a delightful sense of playfulness.
Every project we undertake is like a grand tapestry, weaving together tradition and innovation into a seamless blend of the past and the future.
The Creatives
Avgi Pourgoura
Founder
Avgi's journey into the world of immersive theatre began during her university years. While studying Theatre and Performance at the Guildford School of Acting, she discovered this captivating art form that would shape her creative path. However, her connection with the stage began much earlier in life when she started as a child actor in her home country, Cyprus.
She later pursued a master's degree in Advanced Theatre Practice from the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.
Her recipe for inspiration? It's a blend of the finest ingredients: a serene walk in nature, the artistry of cooking, the challenge of hot yoga and a touch of whimsy as she hangs upside down on an aerial hammock.
Our Collaborators
Behind the scenes of Genome Theatre's enchanting productions are the brilliant minds and artistic souls who lend their talents on a freelance basis. Our family of creative collaborators includes accomplished artists, choreographers, actors, and visionaries, each adding their unique brushstroke to the canvas of our immersive experiences.
These dedicated individuals infuse their expertise, creativity, and boundless enthusiasm into every project they touch. Together, we embark on a journey where innovation knows no limits, and luxury takes centre stage.
We're privileged to collaborate with these exceptional talents, and it's their passion and commitment that continue to elevate our performances to extraordinary heights. With their talents, we craft worlds where imagination flourishes, and audiences are transported to realms where dreams become reality.
Eddie
Head of Cheer
We can't forget to introduce Eddie, our four-legged Chief Happiness Officer. Eddie's role within the company has been vital, serving as the head of cheer and expert in tail-wagging positivity.
Aside from his official business duties, Eddie has a knack for 'reinventing' plush toys, and he's a connoisseur of the finest puppuccinos. When he's not spreading joy throughout the office, you can often find him wagging his tail, ready to put a smile on anyone's face.
