Mon 15 Jan 2024

In December 2023 Transform was shortlisted for The Stage’s 2024 International Award.

The Stage Awards recognise excellence in the theatre industry and this acknowledgement is a powerful testament to the success of Transform 23.

The Stage describes the 2023 edition as ‘Transform’s most ambitious yet’, highlighting our position as ‘one of the most important international festivals in the UK’.

Huge congratulations to the winners, our amazing partners and friends Battersea Arts Centre. It was an honour to be nominated alongside you and Complicité!
