Welcome to Emergence Festival 2026
Emergence is a festival of new work from the graduating artists of the MFA Acting/Directing Classical and Contemporary Text programme.
Emergence 2026 will include a range of provocative live performances and gripping short films presented across four days in January, returning to Glasgow’s iconic Centre for Contemporary Arts and surrounding venues.
These creative projects are the result of what can happen when artists are given a small budget and autonomy to respond to the provocation: what is the future of theatre and film?
