Creative Scotland - Touring Fund for Theatre and Dance

Currently open

This fund supports professional theatre and dance productions of varying scales to tour across Scotland. It aims to bring high quality performances to more places and people across Scotland, supporting a mix of artists, producers, venues and companies to develop audiences for Theatre and Dance. This includes outdoor, circus, interdisciplinary and site-specific work. It also aims to reduce risk for producers of tours by providing sufficient funding to cover all touring costs, and to reduce risk for venues and presenters by offering tours on a no-fee basis with a favourable box office income split. The fund supports the touring of brand-new productions and shows in development as well as providing an opportunity for work that has already been produced to be seen by a wider audience or to tour again. Funded work must be offered to venues at no cost, helping reduce risk and increase access.
