This October, the STAMP (Supporting Theatre Artists and Makers of Performance) network is bringing back its not-to-be-missed annual event for new, early, and mid-career artists: STAMP Connects.
STAMP Connects breaks down barriers between independent artists and the organisations who exist to support them. As in previous years, it will feature panel discussions with a variety of programming, producing and commissioning theatres. At our ‘marketplace’, ticket holders can also meet, chat and build relationships with over 25 London-based arts organisations, including the Young Vic, BAC, Pleasance, and VAULT Festival.
STAMP Connects is an opportunity to tell venues and organisations what you think and what you need – and to gain an understanding of how those organisations and venues can support you and your work.
Organisations confirmed so far for the marketplace are: Arcola, Arts Depot, Barbican, Blue Elephant, Camden Peoples Theatre, The Cockpit, Fuel, Kings Head, Little Angel, Old Diorama, Omnibus Theatre, Pleasance, Riverside Studios, Shoreditch Town Hall, Streatham Space Project, Tamasha, Theatre Deli, VAULT Festival, Young Vic (Creators Programme)
Plus more to be announced! Check back soon for the full programme.
