Suitcase Day

The Suitcase Prize challenges theatre makers to think in an environmentally and economically sustainable way.

The 10 participants compete to win £1,000 by presenting a 20 minute scratch which can be transported on public transport! Yes, literally in a suitcase! The judging panel will consider your feedback throughout the day at #pulsesuitcase

There are four sessions. One ticket covers all sessions. Join us in the bar for the Suitcase Prize Awards Ceremony at the New Wolsey Theatre at 9:00pm.
