This Supercool Session was recorded live on Tuesday 23 February 2021

Well before lockdowns struck, touring companies have been grappling with engaging audiences at a distance. Audiences they don’t see for long periods of time. Audiences who can’t pop-in to a venue for a chat with the Box Office team, or a cup of tea in the café.

In this Supercool Session, we explored how you can build strong relationships with audiences when you don't often see them, how you can support your mission and values during a lockdown, and how you can leverage business partnerships to reach new audiences.

We were delighted to be joined by special guest panellists:
