PIPS - Perfomance in Progress

Developing a hotbed of next generation artists.

The key characteristics of the PIPS is that they are cross-art-form in nature, multi-collaborative, flexible, dynamic, experimental in their ways of working and suitable for audiences of all ages.

• The PIPS are about taking the seed of an idea to enable a process of experimentation, research and development.

• Each one is tailor made to the needs of the project.

• Once a "fragment" has been developed, the next stage is to take the project to the point of viable "Production" by providing creative support and by identifying and nurturing partners to support its realisation.

The current PIPS are five new cross-art-form performance projects with outstanding contemporary emerging and mid career artists: Stretch; Blind Summit; Matilda Leyser; Vex; Inne Goris.
