DARE FESTIVAL

DARE is a festival of new and in-development theatre and performance exploring the borders between theatre, politics and conversation. If theatre were a music festival, DARE would be its new bands tent – a raucous, unpredictable and joyous place to explore the biggest questions facing us right now.

DARE Festival will return Shoreditch Town Hall in October 2019.
