Every year we invite one local organisation to become part of the Local Partnership Scheme at the Bush Theatre.
Our Local Partners form a collaborative & creative relationship with the Bush Theatre over 6 months.
Local Partners will work alongside a Lead Artist to try out different artistic styles, forms, themes and ideas and explore in depth the creative interests of the group. The Lead Artist and Local Partners will co-create an event or performance to close the project, presented here at the Bush.
Our Local Partner for 2023 – 2024 was Carers Network led by Artist Jordana Golbourn.
Our Local Partner for 2021 – 2022 was The Notting Hill Carnival Project led by Piece of Cake Theatre Company and Neighbourhood Company led by People Show.
Our Local Partners for 2019 – 2020 was Barons Court Project led by Artist Katie Duncan and Masbro Centre Tea Club led by Artist Will Hudson.
Our Local Partners for 2018 – 2019 were This New Ground Collective, led by Spare Tyre and The Neighbourhood Company, led by Artist Molly Taylor.
Our Local Partners for 2017 – 2018 were Nubian Life, who worked with Cressida Brown, and Shepherd’s Bush Families Project, who worked with Tangled Feet.
