Delayed Christmas Season - Call for Submissions

Whilst the reopening of our theatre has now been postponed, we’re hoping to emerge from Lockdown 2.0 with a reduced Christmas Season supported by Arts Council Emergency Funding.

Do you have a production that missed its Edinburgh Run this year? If it meets our criteria below, we’d love to hear from you!

We are looking for productions that are:

- Light-hearted, comedic and/or content suitable for Christmas time audiences!

- Around an hour long

- Minimal set & ideally 3 actors max (due to social distancing measures)

- Ready to go for a December 2020 or January 2021 run 

We understand these are precarious times for theatre makers. Thanks to the Arts Council England Emergancy Fund we will be able to absorb some of the finanical risk of this season. We will not be charging companies rent for the theatre space and will be offering favourable box office spilts.

Submissions should be sent to roisin@oldredliontheatre.co.uk by 15th November and should include:

- Title, synopsis and history of production

- Contact details of applicant and details of production company attached

- A copy of the script, cast information and proposed set design

- Status of production (e.g any funding secured, dates of earliest availability)
