ABOUT US

MIO Projects is a theatre & performing arts entertainment company founded by María Inés Olmedo that operates in Mexico since 2012, (before by the name Co-Productions), and in the UK since 2018.

Drawing on the very latest in theatrical concepts and styles we create, develop and produce innovative and exciting entertainment experiences in theatre and all around the performing arts.

We work with a wide range of artists; both with highly established and up-and coming talent.

At MIO Projects we are inspired to create work that cuts across geographical and cultural borders, as well as to generate local impact in our communities and promote art for social change.

We focus on promoting Latin American and international voices, as well as on nurturing new emerging talent by building relationships between new writers and established directors and vice versa.  

Investing in artistic training and development opportunities, as well as becoming a strong agent for international collaboration within the performing arts is right at the core of our long term vision.

OUR VISION

We want to hear from artists who are passionate about creating outstanding new work which explores engaging, contemporary subjects in a way that will entertain the largest audiences possible.

MIO Projects asks; how do we make the popular artistic and the artistic popular.
