About Us

One mission:
To create high-end TV and film productions that
inspire and empower people through entertainment.

Two passions:
To give voice to female-led stories using female-rich teams,
and uplift the UK regions with locally filmed productions
with global appeal.

Our Story

We are a new, independent production company founded by actor and writer, Sarah Preston.

After being involved in the industry for nearly thirty years, and experiencing first-hand the need for more diverse and female-led projects – both in terms of roles for actors as well as opportunities for behind-the-camera talent – Sarah felt compelled to redress the balance. It is our focus, here at Bamboo, to develop and create high-end TV, and film projects that aspire to do just that.

We also believe very strongly in bringing attention to the regions throughout the UK, in particular, the North East.

With the huge initiative this year to develop a sustainable creative industry in the North East, and uplift the area, we are proud to be a part of that forward drive with our first TV show: a psychological, naturalistic sci-fi thriller set in Newcastle.

Alongside this, as part of our paying it forward philosophy, Bamboo will be working with the local colleges and government to implement an apprenticeship/mentorship programme to help both new and returning female creative talent living in the North East.
