Preferred programming: We are the theatre of ideas. We programme things that excite us, from jazz to opera to Shakespeare and academic conferences. We are small enough to be light on our feet and responsive to contemporary events but also a multi-space hub used by a wide range of theatre activists. We often programme diverse works from minority or oppressed groups and new writing, but we are open to anything. We have many educational opportunities and festivals to bring your show no matter what stage you’re at.
Whether you’re a mid-scale touring production, a drama school looking for a new space, or a new writer trying to get your work up, we could be the theatre for you.
