Based in south London, the company opened its newly renovated premises as a dedicated national home for small-scale multicultural productions in 2016. Its work has been described by Sir Richard Eyre as "a terrific synthesis of east and west." Nilesh Mistry was born in Bombay and moved to London in 1975.
