Festive meet-up for the theatre community led by the award-winning company Jordan & Skinner, part of Capital Theatres' 'Open for Creatives' programme.
The Big Edinburgh Theatre Meet Up returns to the Studio Theatre on Wednesday 9 December, this time as a festive edition. It's a night for the city's theatre community to get together with drinks, activities and a few surprises thrown in, and this one is led by Jordan & Skinner.
If you haven't come across them, Jordan & Skinner are the award-winning duo behind Do Not Pass Go. Their work mixes physical theatre, clown, dance, politics and visual metaphor, and they're Fringe regulars: they picked up a Fringe First for Sanitise and a Three Weeks Award for At A Stretch. Performer Melanie Jordan and director Caitlin Skinner are the two running the session.
The meet-up is part of Capital Theatres' 'Open for Creatives' programme, which supports artists living and working in Scotland at every stage of their journey with space, resources and opportunities to grow and experiment. That includes workshops, an 'Open Floor' scratch night with an honorarium and audience feedback, 'Open to Ideas' R&D residencies and the 'REWRITES' partnership that champions new musicals. It sits alongside the company's 'Take Part' creative engagement strand, its dementia-friendly programme and its work with schools and young people.
