applications open for residencies at the nest

We are now open for applications for residencies to take place in April & May 2026. Closing date for applications 22nd March 2026.

We are a Coventry-based company of artists known for our gently provocative projects which explore, and seek to illuminate, the profound and complex relationships between people and place. We're big on access, human connection, social and ecological responsibility, and on nurturing the next generation of artists and theatre makers, particularly in Coventry.
