Join us at the Belgrade this summer for a programme of new plays, workshops and conversations between artists and audiences.
Over 10 days the Belgrade will become an artistic hub for the region, because we are passionate about new writing, unearthing new stories and sharing them with people who want to see them. See It First is your opportunity to see the best shows and engage in workshops and conversations with leading companies making new work, prior to making the journey to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
See It First is for the curious, for artists in search of inspiration and audiences in search of new adventure!
Follow the links below to find out more about individual shows/events and to book.
