About No Dress Code | Scratch Night
No Dress Code is our informal scratch night for artists working in Yorkshire. Once a year we invite audiences to our studio theatre to watch new dance works-in-progress* by up-and-coming dance artists and companies. This is a pay-what-you-can event, and all donations go to the artists and companies performing.
After the performances there is a chance to share your feedback and insights in a relaxed setting.
Artists can apply to show works in progress* at No Dress Code each Spring. Sign up for our Artist Newsletter to find out when our next round of applications open.
*By works in progress we mean new work which has already undertaken research and development and is being structured into a performance.
