Foursight Theatre is a female-led devising theatre company, established in 1987 and based in the West Midlands town of Wolverhampton. They are known for their tongue-in-cheek satire Thatcher The Musical![1][2] (produced in 2006 with the Warwick Arts Centre). They have also produced The Corner Shop, about shopkeepers, customers and families, set in an abandoned shop in Sandwell, West Bromwich.[3][4]

The company produces shows for national touring and site-specific work rooted in their home region.
