Captivate is Manipulate's nationwide community and partnership programme, which aims to enrich the lives of people from diverse backgrounds across Scotland, through opportunities to see and participate in puppetry, animation and visual theatre in their everyday lives, and to celebrate local communities as places where creativity thrives.

The programme is currently delivered across North Lanarkshire, Uist in the Outer Hebrides, Western Edinburgh and Caithness in the Highlands.

Captivate is a responsive, multi-year creative conversation between Manipulate Arts, lead arts partners, community members, local venues, cross sector organisations and artists in these areas. Through the project they work to present high quality year-round arts performance and engagement opportunities, focusing on exciting, accessible, affordable and highly visual work.
