Established and run by playwrights, Amy Hawes, Jennifer Adam and Mhairi Quinn, Tandem features tasters of topical new scripts by the three writers, performed script in hand by the best local actors.

Organising events across Edinburgh and Glasgow, Tandem presents a night of new writing and live music in a relaxed environment. Their last show in 2020 was here at the Traverse and the girls are delighted to return exactly where they left off with six brand new short plays that they have created and critiqued together.

This show is taking part in our £1 Tickets project.

The Traverse Theatre is funded by Creative Scotland and The City of Edinburgh Council, with additional support from The Scottish Government Performing Arts Venues Relief Fund.

Seating for this performance is General Admission, so you can choose where you would like to sit when you arrive, and sit with others in your group who may have booked at different times. Capacity within the auditorium has been capped so that space can be left between groups on the same row.

If you have access requirements, please contact our Sales and Welcome Team on boxoffice@traverse.co.uk or 0131 228 1404 so we can arrange reserved seating for you and discuss how else we can best support your visit.
