INCOMING Festival 2017 Line-Up Announced

The full line-up of INCOMING Festival 2017 has been announced - 20 shows across 10 days from all around the UK.

Every year the line-up at INCOMING Festival gets better and better. For 2017, New Diorama & A Younger Theatre are presenting our greatest programme to date: full of the best, most exciting early-career theatre companies which have presented work over the past twelve months.

INCOMING is welcoming four direct transfers from National Student Drama Festival: Theatre 42's NOTHING IS COMING, THE PIXELS ARE HUGE (winner of the award for Outstanding Achievement in Design), Pub Corner Poet's SAD LITTLE MAN (NSDF Judges Commendation for Playwriting) and Emergency Chorus's CELEBRATION (winner of the Fest Goers Award and Sunday Times Playwriting Award).

Alongside brand new companies, INCOMING Festival 2017 sees us welcoming back some theatre companies already popular with audiences, including The Sleeping Trees, Plasticine Men and The Letter Room.

Increasingly, INCOMING Festival is the place to see the best new work first. Previous shows that have premiered at INCOMING have gone on to win Fringe Firsts, Peter Brook Awards and even transferred internationally, including recently to Off-Broadway.

A truly national festival, INCOMING 2017 is bringing companies from all across the UK to Central London, including groups from Exeter, Glasgow, Brighton, Newcastle, Hull, the West Midlands and Coventry.

And with every ticket still only £5, INCOMING remains a theatre festival that everyone can enjoy. To view the full line up of INCOMING Festival 2017 please click here.

Alongside, the full festival programme INCOMING Festival is hosting a range of workshops and events for early-career theatre makers. For full details of workshops click here.

New Diorama Theatre Artistic Director David Byrne said: "INCOMING Festival is one of the best things we do at New Diorama - it's what we do all year round but in fast forward. This year is the best line-up we've ever had, and I'm proud that INCOMING is still offering one of the best festival deals in the country for the companies we're championing and a brilliant audience offer, with all tickets still just £5."

Incoming Festival co-director Eleanor Turney said: "We're so excited to launch this, our fourth INCOMING Festival at New Diorama. We've scoured the country to find the most exciting emerging companies, and we're delighted to share that work with you!"
