Fiery Angel is a British theatre production company founded in 1997 by Edward Snape and Marilyn Eardley.[1]
History
[edit]In 1987 Marilyn Eardley left the Lyric Theatre Hammersmith to join Sir Kenneth Branagh to set up The Renaissance Theatre Company. Many West End and touring productions ensued, as well the feature film of Henry V. Marilyn then worked in the film industry, the West End and National Youth Theatre. Marilyn and Edward met when Edward produced the Reduced Shakespeare Company.
In 1992, Edward Snape discovered the Reduced Shakespeare Company’s production The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) at the Edinburgh Fringe, and helped facilitate its transfer to the West End[2], where it performed at the Arts Theatre. He would later transfer Kindertransport to the Vaudeville Theatre in 1996, before founding the company Fiery Angel in 1997.
The company’s subsequent theatrical productions have included Patrick Barlow’s The 39 Steps[3], which played at the West End’s Criterion Theatre from 2006 to 2015 (with a West End revival and UK tour in 2024), the 2018 West End production of Long Day’s Journey Into Night starring Lesley Manville and Jeremy Irons and the sell-out revival of Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s one-woman show Fleabag at Wyndham’s Theatre.
Fiery Angel has collaborated extensively with Kenneth Branagh, presenting The Kenneth Branagh Theatre Company’s 2015-16 residency at the Garrick Theatre, alongside the 2023 West End production of King Lear at Wyndham’s Theatre (directed by and starring Branagh), which transferred to New York’s The Shed in 2024. The company has also produced commercial transfers of National Theatre productions such as The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, The Lehman Trilogy and War Horse[4].
Associated companies
[edit]The Fiery Angel banner also encompasses four associated companies - The Children’s Theatre Partnership, Fiery Angel Entertainment, Fierylight and Fiery Dragons.
Children's Theatre Partnership
[edit]Fiery Entertainment
[edit]Fiery Entertainment specialises in live entertainment, from music and comedy through to family productions. Committed to creativity and quality, the company engages audiences of all ages, and shapes the landscape of live shows across the UK and beyond.
Fierylight
[edit]Fiery Dragons
[edit]Formed in 2011, Fiery Dragons is an industry established investor-producer which has to date participated in over 250 productions in the West End, on UK and International Tours, and to a lesser extent on Broadway. They are led by an exceptional board of Luke Johnson (Chair), Ed Snape, Eleanor Lloyd, Kash Bennett and Rutger Beelaerts.
Building on the successes of Fiery Dragons, the decision was taken in 2024 to launch Fiery Dragons II which will enable more sizeable Co and Associate Producer positions in productions.
