APPLICATION

INFORMATION

A few things to consider before applying-

Duration:

The performance night will be 2 hours in length, so we are looking for shorter 5-20 minute works, or durational work which can co-exist whilst other performances are happening.

The space:

The main space- A ‘white box’ gallery space, with spot lighting available. This is the central space where most performances will take place.

The entrance- A large lobby with sofas and a welcome desk

The inbetween space- The corridor which leads to the main gallery space, has a small open room on left side, perhaps suitable for durational work.

Equipment:

We have limited equipment available and we plan to light the space fairly simply.

If your work requires specific technical equipment or props you will need to source these yourself.

Rehearsal:

We plan to have 1 full day of rehearsal prior to the night. There will also be time on 22nd to set up and prepare in the space.
