FREE rehearsal & performance space for a collective in Camden Town, London Hypha Studios

Eligibility: We are looking for a group of performers (artists, musicians, actors) that are looking for free rehearsal or performance space, on an initial 3 month basis, with the potential to extend, subject to review. *We will not accept applications from individual artists* PLEASE NOTE We would want this unit to be used at a minimum of 3 days a week (ideally more, and hours to be agreed in advance). We will not accept a group that already has a performance or studio space elsewhere.The venue is free, as will be all the utilities for the first 3 months. After this point the bills maybe payable, depending on your usage to this point and to be discussed. You will be expected to pay a deposit, have your own Public Liability Insurance, buy the necessary fire extinguishers and have any electrical items PAT tested. The ground and first floors of this site features a music venue which includes two other seating areas. The back of the main space has a rare floor to ceiling height of 9m. In total it is 6,143 SF and is less than 5 minutes from Camden tube station.

What you get: This unique space is predominantly a rehearsal space, which will be used for free – however in return you will organise public- facing events as part of your occupation. This could be a workshop, gig, play, festival, a series of talks or anything which supports your creative practices. We will prioritise those that cannot normally afford rehearsal or performance space, and believe that this opportunity might help them reach the next stage of their career.
