News: 23rd July 2025 by Louise Dodgson under Live

The Union Theatre, a 75 seater venue located under the arches in Southwark, are turning their attention from supporting playwrights, actors and directors to supporting emerging musicians.

Their inaugural event, Union Bands, will see 8 bands and artists play 10-15 minute slots on 5th September.

Artists are required to bring their own instruments, although the sound system will be supplied by the theatre. Each band is welcome to record their work and invite industry (complimentary tickets can be provided to industry).

Artists and bands aged between 16-25 years are encouraged to apply. Email [email protected] with links to music or performance footage.

Please note this is an unpaid gig and ticket costs will pay for the theatre space, lighting and sound equipment and staffing of the bar.
