Are you an artist that works with dance and movement? Does your practice involve collaboration? Do you have a work in progress that you want to share? Then the Dance Base Scratch Night is for you!
The Dance Base Scratch Night is a unique platform in Edinburgh that 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.

One of the selected artists will also be invited to perform their show at the 2025 Hidden Door Festival in the Paper Factory for 5 days from 11 – 15 June 2025. This invitation includes rehearsal time, production consultation and five paid performances. Read on for more details!
