Cabaret Mechanical Theatre now has a Mechanical Making Space in Hastings, East Sussex, UK.
Our new HQ is home to our office, repair shop together with a flexible exhibition space to showcase some of our automata and to run workshops for artists and enthusiasts of all ages and abilities.
WHEN ARE WE OPEN?
Well, not all the time. We need a flexible space. At times we will be closed to prepare our touring exhibitions or for workshops.
We are often open Mon-Fri during office hours or by appointment. We will also open on selected Saturdays, these will be listed on this page and announced via our mailing list and social media channels.
In November we are installing an animated automata window display so there will always be something to see.
