If history is written by the victors, then who defines the future?
WHAT WE DO
In a world of disruptions, some will be storytellers, and some will be story makers. It is the story makers that will be the hero of the future. Are you ready to transform your business and become a story maker?
Black Swan Theatre presents visions of tomorrow with the help of the most brilliant minds of today.
By focusing on specific topics of interest, and employing the knowledge of experts, we present you with alternate paths to a preferred future.
We can provide you with the facts, ideas and viewpoints that will challenge your way of thinking and introduce you to the Black Swans that are waiting to appear in your world.
Our methods are not those of consulting companies. We are committed to delivering tangible and actionable direction. Our focus is your prosperity and growth, based on the true potentials we identify in your landscape.
The established constructs of economy, politics and social structure are rapidly approaching the precipice of change. We can help you identify and build new economic models and provide the disruptive edge you will need to make the future work in your favour.
“No amount of observations of white swans can allow the inference that all swans are white, but the observation of a single black swan is sufficient to refute that conclusion.”
David Hume

OUR EVENTS
In Ancient Greece, Theatre was developed as a commentary on the social and political happenings of the day. If a General went too far in pursuit of victory, say, by killing women and children in his campaign, the worst he might expect upon his return to Greece, was a scathing portrayal at the local amphitheatre.
But theatre also served a more important purpose; it was a voice that questioned the status quo on behalf of the citizens. As such, it played, and one might still credibly argue, continues to play a vital role in the machinations of what we call democracy.
In essence, theatre is an extension of the privilege of voting and freedom of speech. It provides direction, education, laughter and a sense of purpose for the assembled crowd.
Black Swan Theatre carries on this proud tradition by using our multiple event platforms to do exactly as the Greeks did – to ask the questions to which people wish to learn the answers – by focusing on you and your immediate needs, while providing actionable direction and vital information to move your organisation forward.
