Local Partnership Scheme

Every year we invite one local organisation to become part of the Local Partnership Scheme at the Bush Theatre.

Our Local Partners form a collaborative & creative relationship with the Bush Theatre over 6 months.

Local Partners will work alongside a Lead Artist to try out different artistic styles, forms, themes and ideas and explore in depth the creative interests of the group. The Lead Artist and Local Partners will co-create an event or performance to close the project, presented here at the Bush.
