Exeter Northcott Theatre in Collaboration with Exeter Phoenix presents
Reclaim Festival: Scratch Night
Ever wondered how great performance really comes to life?
We’ll let you in on a little secret. It’s not just hours locked away writing or rehearsing. Sometimes artists need the spark of a real audience – the laughs, the gasps, the energy – to help shape their finest work. That’s where you come in.
Join a vibrant mix of local women-led theatre companies and performance artists for an eclectic, entertaining mash-up of fresh work-in-progress performances, focussed around women’s stories. This night is a crucial step for the artists and an unforgettable, left-field experience for the audience (that’s you!).
It might be hilarious. It might be messy. It might be tender, weird, brave or unexpectedly moving. And you might just leave feeling energised, joyful and hugely inspired.
A Scratch Night isn’t your typical evening out – it’s creative risk-taking at its finest and you can be at the heart of it.
Applications for Reclaim Festival: Scratch Night are open!
Got an idea that needs a platform?
Exeter Northcott Scratch Night in collaboration with Exeter Phoenix offers South West based artists in need of an audience a chance to stretch their ideas and the opportunity to test their work in the Clifford Room at the Barnfield theatre, along with £150 to help develop their idea and a small amount of rehearsal space before the Scratch Night.
This event is part of Reclaim Festival, our yearly celebration of women in the arts. Featuring brilliant new writing, not-so-new-but-also-brilliant writing, workshops, music and more, immerse yourself in locally sourced female greatness, to be enjoyed by everyone.
