    Formation Series

    Formations Series, The ShowRoom, Chichester 2024

    development | collaboration | partnership research | engagement | dialogue

    We strive to support and develop a safe environment where creativity can flourish, ideas can be challenges and new work can be made. Working with artists and companies whose arts practice is innovative and exploratory in form. We hope to support a programme of extraordinary work which questions and develops arts practice in the 21st century as well as presenting opportunities for audiences to experience new work at every stage of its development.

    The Formation Series gives artists the space and resources so that they can try out ideas as part of their development of new work. Audiences are invited to take part by giving feedback, which will support artists as part of this process.

    James has been touring his storytelling theatre shows for half his adult life. This year was different though.
