Tourbook is the first fully user-led, accessible online marketplace for the programming and touring of live performance; across theatre, dance, music, comedy, circus, spoken word and more.
Tourbook is designed to make the processes and jobs involved with the touring of live performance easier.
It does this by:
- helping the sellers of touring work (performers and those that manage and represent them) connect with potential buyers (those programming venues and festivals).
- enabling performers, at every stage of their career, to showcase their work and connect with the programmers and venues who can make those events happen - whether in a remote village hall, a large-scale civic space or privately owned large-scale theatre.
- providing accessible tools that support people to plan, manage and collaborate in order to create tours and programmes that reach as many people and as many places as possible.
All of which widens access, improves diversity and grows audiences.
Currently, Tourbook.live is supporting performers from anywhere in the world in touring live performance across Scotland, Northern Ireland and Ireland. The Tool will be rolled-out across the rest of the UK in 2019.
