Below are the venues taking part; you can find more details in the Eventotron Venue Finder once you have submitted your application with information about your show.
BARONS COURT
With global new writing and works in translation featuring regularly in our programming, Barons Court Theatre is one of the go-to homes for international theatre work visiting this sunny island. We’re looking for theatre that’s bold, writers that are hot in their home countries, and plays that have the potential to be the next big thing. We welcome plays staged in their original language as well as in translation. We champion migrant-led theatre and our programming is also open to diaspora artists based in the UK.
THE COCKPIT
The Cockpit, the home of Voila! since the festival’s beginning in 2012, is a “theatre of ideas and disruptive panache.” Dysfunctional times need a fully-functioning theatre with things to say. A theatre for London of useful, progressive ideas for the future.
ETCETERA THEATRE
The Etcetera is an award-winning pub theatre, established in 1986. Since the day we first opened, we’ve established a reputation for hosting and supporting London’s most thrilling new fringe theatre, comedy, cabaret and musical acts.
For thirty seven years we have provided an essential springboard for theatre companies, comedians and performers looking to launch themselves into the arts industry.
THE PLAYGROUND THEATRE
The Playground Theatre is envisioned as a dynamic space where artists from diverse backgrounds converge to foster collaboration and craft innovative, daring, and imaginative works within a secure environment. Our mission is to champion the incubation and collaboration of new works on both the international and national stages, cultivating a fertile ground for creativity.
THE QUESTORS THEATRE – STUDIO
The Questors Theatre in Ealing is one of the largest community theatres in Europe. Since being founded in 1929, it has staged thousands of productions including international exchanges, new writing festivals and one of the largest youth theatres in Britain. The Questors Theatre is owned and run by a club, staging 19-20 of its own productions each year. The venue encompasses a 400-seat Playhouse and a 100-seat Studio.
THE SPACE THEATRE
We want to work with vibrant, passionate and talented theatre makers. We want to help them stage successful shows, develop as artists and connect with their audience. As an organisation, we are courageous, creative and inclusive and we look for the same qualities in the artists we work with.
THEATRE DELI
Theatre Deli has a focus on supporting emerging artists, companies and communities whose identities, backgrounds, disciplines or work are underrepresented in theatre. We want to programme work that inspires new perspectives and demands action. We want you to experiment, explore, participate and take creative risks in an environment where it’s as joyful and meaningful to fail as it is to succeed.
THEATRO TECHNIS
Founded in 1957 by George Eugeniou, Theatro Technis has been an independent company and venue for over six decades. Nestled between King’s Cross and Camden, the 120 seater venue has a rich history of celebrating both local and international artists. At its heart, the venue is dedicated to serving its diverse and dynamic community.
