Slung Low
Description
Slung Low is a theatre company that makes different types of performance. More details www.slunglow.org Slung Low is a company that makes adventures for audiences outside of conventional theatre spaces.
Slung Low’s aim is to make unlikely, ambitious and original adventures for audiences, each with powerful, moving story at its heart. Shows that re-examine how audiences go and see a piece of theatre. Our ambition has always been to transport our audience to new places and to make them see familiar places from new perspectives.
Slung Low’s home is the Holbeck Underground Ballroom (The HUB). Five railway arches in Holbeck South Leeds.
The HUB is a rehearsal space which we make available to those making performance in the region who have need of it.
The HUB is also a place where we can invite exciting new work from other companies and present them to an audience; a makeshift performance space.
We also understand that in these times committing to see a piece of theatre isn’t the easiest of choices, so we will always welcome you as warmly as we can, the kettle will always be on, and because everyone has different circumstances as many of our shows as possible will be “pay what you decide”- you give the amount of money you think is right after you see the show.
We look forward to welcoming you.

Our @artsawardvoice @aceagrams Pizza party! Congrats to all our super talented Generate company members. You got that Arts Award! @samuelatkinsson & @hannah.louise3 are very happy!
2016 has been huge for us. We've worked with over 25 different artists, performed for more than 1000 people AND run workshops for 2745 young people. That's right. 2745. The wonderful Malcolm Johnson has followed us around on much of this journey documenting our work. Some of these images we have been sharing with you over the last year. So over the next week we are going to celebrate our year and those we have worked with, through images and numbers!
