About the company

Hooky Productions is an award-winning theatre company created by Maya Hallpike and Rosa Thomas. They create surreal, interactive and darkly comedic experiences that have been described as "hypnotic" by The Stage.

They won the Brighton Fringe Award for Excellence in Association for the Rotunda Theatre for their show Experiment Human at the Scotsman Fringe Awards in 2022 which supported the company to take the show to Brighton Fringe in 2023.

Off the back of this success, they created a new experimental show There's a Monkion in Your Attic touring London, Iceland, Durham and Edinburgh in 2023.

They won an OffWestEnd Award/ OFFIE in 2024, as well as Keep It Fringe Funding which supported them to bring the developed version of Experiment Human to Underbelly Cowgate, Edinburgh Fringe 2024 where it received critical acclaim.

They are currently developing a new show, Baby World which they will be previewing at Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2025.
