We believe in sharing knowledge, developing skills demystifying the industry for North West Creatives by providing a platform for artists to meet, collaborate and develop careers.
Paperwork Theatre’s Teacup Commission is a micro fund for local theatre makers, to support new creative ideas- we’re now collecting funds for ROUND 10.
The fund is made by creatives for creatives, to help get early stage ideas off the ground. All that we ask is that you donate the price of a cuppa, and every time the cup reaches £200, local theatre makers can pitch to win it for their project.
We’re delivering this round in partnership with Shakespeare North Playhouse- who will kindly match fund our total, doubling it to £400.
Teacup Commissions are a flexible fund to use however you wish to get your creative idea off the ground. It could be used towards paying yourself or a collaborator, buying a bit of kit, or hiring a space. As long as the project is considered ‘theatre‘, it’s totally up to you.
Now collecting for round 10! Donate the price of a cuppa below to boost local theatre projects:
Previous winners include: Martha Jamieson, Afloat Theatre, Flood Theatre, One Big Dance, Wunderous Funderstorm, Nana Funk, Dora & Jonathan, Ginni Manning.
Play Dates are a series of skills development workshops, masterclasses and meet ups for North West artists to play, network and collaborate. The following workshops will take place at Liverpool Arts Bar Studios on Hope Street.
We’ll be announcing our Spring series soon. Keep an eye on our website and socials for updates.
