First Festival City In-House Production The group has co-produced in the past but now the group will produce two or three in-house or co-productions a year. Chief executive John Stalker told The Stage that there are no plans to become a full-scale producing theatre but "As some producers have pulled back on some of the range of work they are putting out - either because of the economic recession or because of changes in the way they work - I have experienced a reduction in the choice available. It is sometimes necessary to act either alone or with other close colleagues to ensure that there is a flow of work: of original and new ideas or work that might not have be seen in this city before."
