Welcome to Pyramus and Thisbe Productions! I thought I had retired from acting, but it seems not! The pull to the stage was too strong! So here I am back on the road again! Albeit on shorter tours than in previous years! There are more plans for the future, including a Christmas show, but more news to come in a while, watch this space!
Cheers, Dominic Goodwin
Pyramus and Thisbe Productions is a North Yorkshire based theatre company, created by veteran actor and director Dominic Goodwin. The company has been set up to promote the work of Dominic as well as Leeds playwright Stuart Fortey.

The Kaiser and I
by Stuart Fortey
It's Berlin, 1914, and the music has to stop. Kaiser Wilhelm has summoned a dance instructress from England to put his officers through their paces, but now war is only days away…
From ballroom to battlefield and beyond, this two-hander charts the friendship of a man and a woman caught in their nations' crossfire.
Winner of the 2002 Buxton Festival Fringe
Best Drama Award
“An unusual story . . . a wonderfully written play skilfully combining humour and stark moments of wrenching sadness”
Buxton Fringe Review
Joining Dominic for the tour is Pickering based actress Cal Stockbridge:
