sauna theatre

As part of my role with studio three sixty, I have been working as a producer for a new touring venue: Sauna Theatre.

Designed by Lucy Osborne, Sauna Theatre is the UK’s first purpose built sauna arts centre, and the UK’s largest sauna. It seats 80 people and features state-of-the-art lighting and surround sound. The venue launched in August 2026 as part of Summerhall Arts’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe lineup, with an eclectic programme encompassing everything from a morning sauna rave to an adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s The Waves.

My role included programming two events: a lunchtime literary salon and Sauna Sessions Arts Club – our sauna cabaret. Over 70 guest artists were booked during the festival, including Shappi Khorsandi, Emma-Lee Moss, Ben Pope, Kate Hammer, Sooz Kempner, Fishamble, and Conk. I also managed Sauna Theatre’s social media during the festival; designed, built and maintained the Sauna Theatre website; designed merch; booked travel and accommodation for visiting artists; and worked across artist liaison, design, sponsorship, recruitment, and more.
