Francesca Moody Productions commissions, develops and presents brave, entertaining and compelling new theatre. They work with the UK’s leading playwrights and discover and nurture new talent to produce bold, award-winning shows with universal appeal and commercial potential.

Since launching in 2018 the company has been awarded an Olivier, three Scotsman Fringe First’s and produced work in London, New York, on tour across the UK and at the Edinburgh Festival. FMP’s most recent production, BABY REINDEER by Richard Gadd was the Bush Theatre’s fastest selling show in history and was due to transfer to the West-End in 2020 in co-production with Sonia Friedman Productions.  

In 2020 FMP conceived and produced SHEDINBURGH FRINGE FESTIVAL an online live-streamed festival of theatre, comedy and music in lieu of the Edinburgh Fringe, selling over 4500 tickets and raising over £30,000 towards a fund to support the next generation of artists to make it to the Fringe in 2021.
