We Are Here To Share
Saturday 25 Oct 2025
The Drum, Theatre Royal Plymouth
Beyond Face presents an evening showcasing two brand new works in development from Beyond Face Associate Artists Lau Batty and Rozelle Gemma.
Over the course of this year, Lau and Roz have been developing brand new pieces of work for the stage, creating a new part of their show and performing it at each of our We are scratch nights in Southampton, Bristol and Ilfracombe.
This We are Here to Share event is the culmination of our Associate Artists programme, the chance to watch the full-length installment of these two brand new shows, which draw on the artists’ personal experiences, telling unique, compelling and powerful stories.
Come along, support new work and share your feedback in this celebration of work in development.
