Unearthed Festival
Unearthed Festival is a celebration of North East creativity and bold new theatre for a better world.
Ignite your own creative spark through dynamic workshops, masterclasses, socials and performances surrounded by a vibrant community of artists.
New talent, daring collaborations and radical stories still to be told.
Running from Tue 20 to Sat 31 May highlights of Unearthed Festival include: The Royal Court at Live led by David Byrne and Ishy Din, masterclasses with Alistair McDowall and an online Q and A with Oscar winner Tarell Alvin McCraney (Moonlight).
The festival will also feature readings, performances, and scratch nights, the majority of which will be on sale for Live Theatre’s freelance rate of £6. There will also be a mid-career artist gathering, Fail Friday, led by theatre maker Luca Rutherford and creative socials for parents who work in the arts.
"We hope that in these uncertain times a festival like Unearthed can fight against the doom mongering, reminding people that investing in new work is more necessary than ever.”
Jack McNamara, Artistic Director of Live Theatre
