The Creation Space at Tit for Tat
About this space
Tit for Tat’s Creation Space is larger than its neighbouring studio and has greater ceiling height, making it more suitable for theatrical sets, giant puppets, circus skills, and larger ensembles or group workshops.
Like the studio, we are running this space not-for-profit in a voluntary capacity alongside our own touring work. We aim to keep the rates low in support of rehearsing companies/new and mid-career artists making their work. Available for hire 7 days a week.
Floorspace – 7.5m x 12.5m
Height – 5.9m at the apex, 3m at the wall’s edge.
Spacing of cross-bars – 4.5m
Access to a kitchen with sink, microwave, kettle, fridge
Tables and chairs
Solid concrete floor
Jigsaw matting and basic physio equipment
PA/Speakers and audio jack
Lights are on switches / are not full theatre lights – we are able to source some lighting and gels on request at a small additional cost. Unfortunately, the only access point into the building is via 5 steps.
There is a sliding scale based on frequency, duration, and scope of the project/organisation. Please contact us for rates and availability.
Prices
Week hire is 575/week, but is also on a sliding scale based on demand and the nature of your project, with tagvenues listing fee on top if thats how you have found us. We aim to keep this space low cost in comparison to other large spaces in Bristol, but it must also sustain itself. For this reason, single day bookings midweek can block week hires, so we encourage these to happen at weekends, or in an evening slot. Evenings are hired out at 45/eve. Alternatively, just get in touch and describe what you need, as we may be able to make it work around other users or our own creation work.

About Tit for Tat
We run two not-for-profit spaces alongside our own touring work, in an effort to keep creation spaces at comparatively low rates so that artists can afford to make work.
Our smaller studio space is 7.3m x 4m of playing space with low ceilings, with kitchen facilities, a separate sofa area, black out blinds, backdrops, and insulated floors.
Our larger creation space is 12.5m x 7m with a high sloped roof (5.9m at its apex, 3m at the lowest wall edge), with kitchen facilities, matting available, stage flats, and a solid concrete floor. Its height and solid floor make it more suitable to dynamic circus skills or large theatrical sets.
For rates, please enquire.
