Growing the seeds of ideas, fostering collaboration, and connecting local artists and companies with leading industry partners
The Artist Development programme is a network, created by the team here at Theatre Royal Plymouth, to connect artists and makers across Plymouth and the wider South West region. Whether you’re looking to take your first steps into creating a project, or if you need specific support in bringing your ideas to the stage, or are looking to foster artistic collaboration, we are developing a launch pad to support and nurture you and your creative needs.
Beyond being a programme, it serves as a vibrant community hub, welcoming anyone interested in learning and collaborating. In this warm, inclusive space, you can share knowledge, experiment with new ideas, and connect with like-minded people – whether you are emerging or mid-career, this programme serves anyone over the age of 18.
Artist Development consists of three strands of work: EXPERIMENT, FUSE, and CO-LAB. These strands are intrinsically linked to The Lab, our 50-seater performance space. This black box, studio venue is a versatile, transformative space designed to fit the needs of new and emerging work, whether as a rehearsal space or performance venue.
