After another sell-out show last Autumn, our Scratch Night is back for Spring 2024 with a brand-new line up of outstanding artists!
The Dance Base Scratch Night is a unique platform in Edinburgh which brings live dance work to audiences and creates a supportive platform for dance and movement artists to try out ideas on the stage, experiment with an audience and share their work with their peers, the sector and the public.

The evening will be hosted by Shotput co-directors Lucy Ireland & Jim Manganello alongside Dance Base Artistic Director Tony Mills, who will create a safe space for artists to receive feedback from you the audience through a relaxed facilitated conversations.
Along with space in the theatre for conversation during the show there will also be networking drinks in the interval and at the end of the show, providing space for audiences and artists to connect.
