For this year’s Mayfest, we invited our friends and collaborators from Mashirika Arts to take part in a residency at Mayfest. Despite having a visa (and undertaking the arduous process to get one) Malaika was refused entry. She channelled her anger and hurt and created something incredible, here’s her experience in her own words.

This Summer - MAYK is going on tour! With 3 shows, 5 partners, at 9 different venues.

Mayfest is back and this year we’re celebrating 15 years of adventurous, thought-provoking theatre.

WE ARE LIGHTNING! is touring the UK this spring and we need your help to make it happen. So, if you love playing music or know someone who does, get in touch. 

Still House’s SESSION, a collaboration with Steppaz and Empire Sounds, will premiere at LIFT 2018.  

Do you have a creative project on your mind?
Following on from our very productive Demostage in January, we are once again inviting anyone currently working on a creative project who would like to share their ideas in a relaxed and friendly setting, to submit their ideas.

Late last year we announced that we were successful in our bid to Arts Council England’s Strategic Touring Fund to present and tour three international participatory arts projects.

And now we can tell you what those projects are.

On Thursday 25th January, Demostage returned once again for its third instalment...

Hello Everyone. We have a new venue for Demostage. The event will now be hosted at To The Moon, a lovely bar in Old Market.

MAYK is delighted to be a recipient of Arts Council England’s Catalyst Small Grants programme.

Catalyst Small Grants is designed to help organisations build their fundraising capacity and become more resilient.
