Summerhall Arts Surgeries is an artist development initiative championing innovative, early-stage ideas in a generous, low-pressure environment. This winter, six artists and collectives will share up to 15 minutes of unfinished, in-progress performance with an audience of peers, the public and industry professionals. Building on Summerhall Arts’ long-standing commitment to experimentation, risk-taking and artist-led development, the Surgeries create space for artists to test ideas, play with form, gather valuable feedback and spark new creative connections across artforms. The Surgeries offer a behind-the-scenes look at exciting new work being developed across theatre, movement, spoken word, comedy, music-theatre and interdisciplinary performance. Expect an eclectic mix of ideas, presented in their early stages, with an emphasis on experimentation rather than polished performance. Audiences will be invited to provide written feedback to the artists, and we encourage everyone to stick around afterwards for a drink and an informal chat. Full line-up (and any content warnings) to be announced. 14+ recommended. For access bookings, please contact boxoffice@summerhallarts.co.uk
