Nescot College’s Performing Arts Department combines training in contemporary, physical, screen and musical theatre. It is made up of two companies: Forge Theatre and Nexus Ensemble. The companies perform with the ethos of creating work which is physically daring, emotionally engaging and visually stunning.
