Rehearse or develop a project behind-the-scenes
Maybe you are developing a new project - a podcast, just starting to rehearse a new play, working on sound and lighting design for a show - and our Studio space, technical equipment or know-how could help? Learn more below about how we can support your project's development with guaranteed access to the Studio space, team or tools on fixed schedule.
How to get our development support
-
You submit your request in the form below
-
We understand your creative needs - Do you need just space, tech support, artistic direction support, something else?
-
We define a number of months for your residency during which the Studio will help develop your project or support your course
-
We agree a fixed, recurring schedule of days and times for you to use the Studio space and/or other resources
-
We agree a price that you will be billed monthly - it is far below our standard hourly space rental price for one-off events
Things to keep in mind
-
Please be patient - We are a small team supporting many productions that are happening right now, as well as looking ahead to schedule the months to come. If you submit a request, we will reply to you; it just may take up to two weeks.
​
-
Residencies are at least 3 months long and on a fixed schedule - E.g. We define particular days of the week or month and time frames that will be yours during the months of your residency.​
​
-
Rehearsal hours typically need to be when we don’t have shows - Weekdays or weekends during the day are best. We’ll work these out when building your residency plan.
​
-
We may request that some of your rehearsals be open - We like to offer members of our community the opportunity to sit in on select rehearsals of other productions, as first-hand learning. We’d love it if some of your rehearsals were open. Observers cannot disturb or derail your rehearsal. Forbidden!
​
-
The Studio is a communal space - When your rehearsals are happening, staff or community members may be in the office or social area. They will be respectful, but 100% total silence would not be guaranteed. Typically we find that all our community members can negotiate these situations and make sure everyone gets what they need.
