SAME DIFFERENCE ARTS

C.I.C

Same Difference Arts CIC was created in 2015 to make outdoor theatre and performance which is both interactive and engaging for audiences.

Our ethos is to combine street theatre skills with contemporary art practice to create work which links the audience to their immediate environment. People and Place.

Since our beginning, Same Difference Arts has continued to invent unique and exciting projects which have toured all across the UK.

The company is headed by Natasha Glew (BA, MA), who trained in physical theatre and has worked as a freelance performer in street theatre since 2013. 

In 2015, Bradford Festival commissioned the creation of A Few Feet Up. This was our first walkabout act exploring place through an interactive science object. 

In 2017, Same Difference Arts was awarded "Best External Partner Activity" ​by Southampton Science & Engineering Festival for our Periscope Workshop. 

In 2018, Same Difference Arts was awarded Arts Council Funding to create Memory Collectors. They were also supported by Bradford Festival 2018, to bring the show to the festival. 

In 2019, Same Difference Arts were awarded their second round of Arts Council Funding to tour Memory Collectors in summer 2019. They have been supported by Greenbelt Festival, Arts by the Sea, Larmer Tree festival and Locomotion Railway museum. 

2020-21 , Same Difference Arts made their first full length outdoor show, Alice in Wonderland. They toured nationwide during summer months. 

2022 saw Same Difference Arts create their first inclusive Christmas show, Cinderella. This toured across North and West Yorkshire to 49 venues in 5 weeks. SDA worked with Mind the Gap in Bradford and access specialist Vicky Ackroyd to build inclusivity into the show.
