Good Old Neon is a performance and theatre company founded in 2013 by Nicole Wilson and Alexander Offord. Our work explores the moral, social, and political paradoxes that describe modern life; a theatre of destabilization, of contradictions.

“a young company filled with the ecstatic energy of seaweed in a tsunami…refreshing…brilliant…” --David Bateman
