The company are delighted to be involved in Theatre in Palm, a three-year project running from June 2022 to May 2025 with twelve partners funded by Creative Europe. The project supports emerging artists and cultural performers to co-create and co-promote their work across borders, supporting the mobility of artists through networking and the provision of international opportunities for artists.
