hÅb is a production and development organisation based in Manchester, UK, founded in 1996. Specialising in contemporary performance and live art, often working with regional, emergent artists.
hÅb co-produces a range of initiatives, chiefly for emergent artists, with greenroom, Manchester’s centre for extraordinary new performance. From emergency, an annual platform for new work now in its 8th year, which presents up to 40 short pieces in a day and half each September/October, through Method Lab, a series of small commissions for new work to In Transit a regional touring project produced by LANWest, we hope to offer a joined-up approach to the early stages of an artist’s development.
New, since 2007, is Hazard, a companion piece to emergency, taking performance out of the black box environment and into the city centre in the form of intervention and sited performance and installation.
This site is in development, so please check back in the coming months to find highlights of hÅb’s last 12 years, more detail and documentation of the projects mentioned above and snippets of what may be to come, housed within “Then”, “Now” and “Future”.
hÅb is an Arts Council England, North West regularly funded organisation.
