Funding Opportunity

Playspace

For three days every month, Playspace allows a different artist or team access to space at Birmingham Hippodrome to explore an idea with no pressure to create a piece of work.

Playspace is aimed at West Midlands theatre creatives and offers:

  • Three days of free rehearsal space
  • Access costs support
  • A small materials budget
  • An outside eye if useful / a team member to attend if sharing is held

Some examples of what artists have used Playspace for (you don’t need to necessarily fit neatly into one of these!):

  • Explore a piece of work in the early stages of development (first reading, trying scenes out in a studio space)
  • Workshop a piece of work that is in the mid-stages of development
  • Rehearsal and small sharing in the rehearsal studio

 Applications are now open for the below slots:

  • Wednesday 3 – Friday 5 September 
  • Monday 10 – Wednesday 12 November 

Application Deadline: Sunday 27 July, 12pm
