Horizon Arts Production is a theatre company that was recently founded and has cemented its place on the Guyanese stage in the past four years. While there have been many attempts at starting companies and several groups and individuals have produced plays under names that they have given themselves, for the most part they have existed in name only. A small handful became permanent fixtures, some were never heard of again, a few disappeared with the migration of their leaders and some will occasionally reappear whenever they manage to produce a play.
To have and sustain a company of players is extremely difficult in Guyana for many reasons. Those that have survived and remained viable are quite rare. Horizon Arts Production may now be accepted as one of them. There is still a test of time for it to pass, since it is still very young, but it has so far made a convincing case; it behaves like a true company in a number of ways. It has stable leadership, its founding members (except for one deceased) are still there, and it has gathered others. There is artistic viability, since its directorship includes writers, artistic directors, designers, production technicians and performers. These have worked as a group within the company
