house southeast theatre network survey

Our network members' voices helping to provide a clear picture of theatre ecology in the South East.

This year we're returning to our previously run Network Survey - providing a clear picture of theatre ecology in the South East. We'll be working with evaluation partners The Audience Agency to provide a summary report from members responses to share back with the network and the wider arts and culture sector more broadly.

Following your feedback on previous surveys, this survey has been split into three shorter, separate sections defined by role: Programming, Marketing and Venue Leadership. This makes it is easier for you to focus on your area/s of expertise. If your role spans two or more of these areas, please complete as many as you are happy to.

Our 2026 house southeast theatre network survey is now open and will close on Monday 25th May 2026. We will share a summary report with our network venues by the end of 2026.
