Olá, Hola, Hello
Welcome and thank you for visiting Out of the Wings Collective, a place to celebrate theatre in translation from the Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking worlds.
Festival 2026 - Call for Script Submissions
Out of the Wings (OOTW) is a collective whose mission is to explore and promote theatre in translation from the Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking worlds. A flagship event in our activities is our annual festival, which in 2026 will celebrate its tenth edition.
Taking place at Omnibus Theatre, Clapham, from 14 to 18 July 2026, the festival will feature a script-in-hand reading of an English translation of a play every evening. The readings will be presented as part of a wider festival which will include daytime workshops, talks and discussions, the OOTW ‘Worldmaking on Stage’ Forum, and networking events. As in previous years, we seek to present five plays from five different countries, although double bills may be possible if time allows.
We round-up our 10th Festival, another amazing week of theatre in translation with UK premieres of fantastic plays.
Looking forward to next year!
