The Empty Space

The Empty Space – producing and supporting theatre in the north of England.

We believe that the north of England can provide a home for some of the most exciting and innovative theatre makers around; that a vibrant, thriving community of artists can be created and sustained here; that performers in the region will flourish with the right support and the right opportunities.  And we’re here to help it happen.

So if advice, mentoring, producing support, training or networking events are what you’re after, you may just have found the right place to start.
