Breaking The Box: Unboxed is an opportunity for artists, organisations and venues in the theatre and performing arts sector to come together and learn key findings from Breaking the Box.

Hear from partner venues, Theatrau Sir Gâr and Awen Cultural Trust, Venue Provocateurs, and Early Career Creatives on what was achieved during the project, and how we can share and embed those learnings with the wider sector.

What worked? And what were the challenges? 

At the Norwegian Church we will unbox practical and realistic changes you can implement to create an inclusive and accessible organisation for Deaf, Disabled and Neurodivergent creatives and audiences.
