Lost Kids Collective tells stories from the outsiders, the others, the ‘Lost Kids’.
We’re a collective of artists from a range of disciplines, who make solo and collaborative work based on a shared narrative. We create theatre, music and curate events that look at aspects of identity through personal stories & experiences.
We always blend disciplines. We always tell our truth. You’re always included.
