Previous Residency Programmes

In 2020, we reimagined the C42 programme offerings to meet the evolving needs of the theatre landscape. Some of the older residencies and incubation-focused programmes like Basement Workshop and Guest Room have been restructured and rebranded and you can discover them above.

Others, like the Garage, Fellowship and Boiler Room, have ceased or are retired due to a mix of feasibility and financial reasons. Read about each one of them here:
