Arch468
Arch 468 explores new ways to make and think about theatre. We help emerging artists of all ages to explore and refine their own best practice by giving them the resources and freedom to flop or fly. Arch 468 aims to celebrate new theatre and the headstrong courage of young artists and provide a hub where emerging artists can meet to develop their work, challenge themselves and find bold new audiences. Since opening in 2008, Arch 468 has provided more than £80,000 worth of free development time, space and resources to emerging theatre makers and continues to be a key venue supporting the burgeoning new-theatre scene. www.arch468.com
The Sluts of Sutton Drive was developed by Ensemble Studio Theatre, New York, NY.
