Independent Productions

Submissions for independent producers looking to put on a full-scale independent production at Hayes Theatre in 2026 are now open.

Independent productions operate on a Venue Hire basis, with support from Hayes Theatre Co including specific marketing support, ticketing services, creative and logistic consultation, and inclusion in our annual subscription season and brochure. Our Co-Artistic Directors assess all submissions, then discuss shortlisted shows directly with the producer(s) of those projects. A selection of independent productions are then programmed as part of our annual season, and announced at our season launch in September each year.
