Homemakers is a series of new commissions inviting artists to create new works at home, for an audience who are also at home. Featuring some of the most groundbreaking artists, each event will seek to challenge the definition of “live performance” – whether through live streaming, interactive stories, recordings, personal encounters, or something completely different.

Artists announced so far for Homemakers include Bryony Kimmings, Ad Infinitum, Plaster Cast Theatre and Javaad Alipoor with many more to come. All of the events are accessible online on a ‘pay-what-you-decide’ basis.
