Rough Cuts: Hatch Collective

An offshoot of our annual scratch night Hatch, Hatch Collective events are informal studio sharings designed to support the creative process. These relaxed sessions give artists the opportunity to test ideas, receive feedback, and spark meaningful conversations with local audiences.

In this first event in the Hatch Collective series, part of our year-round Rough Cuts programme, artists will share a no-frills excerpt of up to 15 mins of creation. There will be time built in to mingle, discuss the work and create dialogue in a supportive space.

Tea, coffee and informal discussion will take place in the interval. There will also be drinks and time to chat to the artists about the work after the show.

Artists to be announced soon.

Please note: The artists presenting work in HATCH Collective  will be sharing  early 'works in progress'.. Because these works are still in development, we aren’t able to provide detailed content notes or guarantee that they will be free from sensitive or potentially triggering material.
