Flashlight Access Request

What is Flashlight Access?

Flashlight Access is an opportunity for artists, collectives, organisations, and community groups to book the Don Craig Room in Laycock Street Community Theatre for no-cost during the theatre’s staffed business hours for non-commercial creative activities. Activities may include rehearsals, short developments, script workshopping and more.


The staffed business hours are Monday to Friday, 10am to 4pm.


Keen to apply for access?

Fill out the form at least 4 weeks before you would like to use the space. Someone from the theatre's team will get in touch to confirm your booking or find a different time if the Don Craig Room is not available.


Please note, the booking is not confirmed until you receive a booking confirmation.


The eligibility criteria for the Flashlight Access can be found on page 5 of the Performance Illuminated Pilot Information Booklet.
