Scratch is a quarterly night for performance makers to test ideas and share works in progress with a live audience of their peers.

It is an invitation for artists to experiment with fresh material, and investigate possible directions to continue to develop the works, within a supportive room of fellow artists and the La Mama community. Each artist/s will have up to 10 minutes on the night to share their work, followed by time for feedback and discussion with a panel and audience. We welcome pieces from a variety of performance forms, with a specific focus on theatrical forms.

Featuring the works in progress of:

Victoria Winata
Sam Pringle
Eleanor Ratcliffe
Bridie and Bella Noonan

With panellists Emma Hall & Kate Hunter
