What could you use Unity for?

The Unity Bar is the perfect space for an away day, informal get together or workshop. With delightful floor to ceiling windows along the entire south-facing wall, it is truly a place of inspiration.

Our Spaces?

Unity 1 is our lovely 140 capacity theatre space. Over the years it has been host to some absolutely stunning productions in all shapes and sizes.

Unity 2 is our upstairs venue and rehearsal space, Unity 2 is perfect for various performance types, styles and genres; the varied and adaptable space is an ideal venue to get creative.

Partnerships

 

Unity wouldn’t be the organisation it is today without the local and national partners that make up its network of creativity and innovation.

We are proudly partnered with a number of inspiring organisations like Homotopia and DaDa Fest as a venue for their annual festivals as well as long-term collaboration wherever possible. We are always searching to add to this roster.

 

What do we do and where could you get involved?

Unity is host to all kinds of projects and new ideas like our talent development programme, Creative’Pool or our brand-new programming platform ProPortal. We are always looking for new creative directions to take and for artistic partnerships to make that happen. If you think your organisation would be a good fit with Unity then get in touch with us at artists@unitytheatre.co.uk.

 

Fresh ideas are always welcome

Partnership by no means has to be for any of these projects that are pre-established, and Unity led. If you have an idea that you’d like to share with us then don’t hesitate to share it with us. That could involve anything from artistic consultancy to use of Unity’s space, to a joint online campaign. There are thousands of ways to partner and we are excited to see what we could create together.

Partnerships don’t have to be long-term or large-scale. We value all the people and organisations we work with from decade-spanning collaboration to a single event; both are special and give Unity the identity that we are so proud of. If you think you could be one of Unity’s future partnerships then get in touch with us and see what that future could be.

Some of our Current Partners

Homotopia

Our partnership with Homotopia is one that we are truly proud of and one of our longest lasting. Our partnership has always been amazing and varied and never fails to push Unity to be a better organisation, always teaching each-other and helping us to grow. The partnership ranges from the brilliant events they host in Unity’s space, to workshops we run together as part of Unity’s Creative’Pool programme or the annual Homotopia lead exhibition in Unity’s bar space.

Our partnership really shows how varied your partnership with Unity can be so if there is an idea of something you aren’t quite sure if we would be interested in then don’t hesitate to get in touch

 

92 Degrees Coffee

Partnerships with Unity don’t have to be just arts related. We love having local coffee from 92 degreed in our cafe, not just because it’s delicious but because it speaks to our values of collaboration and supporting local producers and businesses.

 

DaDa Fest

Long-term partners and friends DaDa are a true pleasure for Unity to work with and host. They continue to lead by example in so many respects and through this partnership Unity as an organisation have learnt so much. We can’t wait to see where this partnership continues to develop and the amazing work DaDa will bring to Unity in the future.

 

Physical Fest  

Unity are honoured to host Physical Fest from Tmesis Theatre. The originality and quality of the work brought to Unity throughout Physical Fest workshops and events is a constant source of inspiration to our team and those in attendance. We can’t wait to see what they bring this year with their amazing array of workshops, all of which can be found here.
