‘Style, originality and passion…this is what makes Calipo stand out from the crowd’- The Irish times.
Calipo is a Drogheda based arts organisation that operates on three levels:
The award winning Calipo Theatre Company is one of Irelands most exciting and innovative producers of theatre. Recent successes include ‘Wunderkind’ by Darren Thornton (Project Dublin 06/Edinburgh Festival 07) and most recently ‘All Over Town’ by Phillip McMahon (Dublin Fringe 07).
Calipo Pictures is the newest addition to Calipo’s creative stable. The company operates as a film and television production company. Recent successes include Frankie, an award winning short film; & Love is the Drug, the Ifta award winning series produced by Saffron films and directed by Darren Thornton.
A big part of Calipo’s identity is creating work for a younger audience; in keeping with this philosophy, the company has an extensive workshop programme in film and drama that the Calipo team facilitate with teenagers and young adults around the country.
