Regrettably we have had to cancel this event owing to a number of our team falling ill. We hope to be able to reschedule for the new year – watch this space.


Demostage is back, and this time MAYK are joining forces with our friends at Bricks for an evening event at our home at St Anne’s House on Wednesday 7th December.

Demostage is an informal, temporary space for new ideas. Open to people who make creative projects of any kind (think theatre, music, games, sound, whatever), the event encourages collaboration, sharing and critical discourse. Presenters have five minutes to present their idea to the room, followed by five minutes for us all to offer thoughts, feedback and ideas.

Demostage is free to attend. We’ll be running a bar during the event.

For audiences, Demostage is an opportunity to get a unique insight into how new creative ideas grow and to help artists make connections and develop their projects. For artists, Demostage is a lightly-held, fun, and informal space to help you get unstuck, make progress and share your ideas with an audience.

To submit your idea to present, fill out this form and include a short paragraph, video, or audio recording about the idea you wish to present: https://bit.ly/DSdec22

If you’d like to come along to Demostage as an audience member – just book a free ticket via Headfirst.

This event is BSL-interpreted.

The venue is wheelchair-accessible via a ramp with accessible toilets just across the hallway. Demostage is a relaxed space and you are free to come and go as you please. If you have any specific questions around access, please drop an email to [email protected].
