About Pop Up Theatre

Pop Up Theatre is an independent company created by British writer-director, Scott McQuaid. The company was founded in 2016 with the aim of producing original productions for stage and audio theatre. The content ranges from comedy to drama, with short to full-length plays, musicals, and podcast plays. Although the company is based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, its office is virtual, and run by Administrative Director and actress, Alexandria Tan.


Its productions feature talents from all over the world- and true to its name, it does not abide to any scheduling calendar, meaning that their shows literally ‘pop up’ with very short notice, and play for three to four nights before disappearing until their next venture. Pop Up Theatre’s YouTube channel has most of its productions uploaded for free viewing, or at least features a trailer of each of their events. Click on the YouTube link here:

Pop Up Theatre has a dedicated following for its Sherlock Holmes podcast play series, that also features on Spotify.
The company is a non-profit organization with the objective to bring innovative and spontaneous theatre to the mass public on various platforms such as stage, screen, and audio streaming.
