JOB OPPORTUNITY: YTM DIRECTOR

    JOB OPPORTUNITY: WORKSHOP ASSISTANTS

    WORKSHOP ASSISTANT OPPORTUNITIES FOR SUMMER SCHOOLS, YOUNG THEATRE MAKERS AND ACTING LAB

    Tobacco Factory Theatres is seeking a number of local workshop assistants for upcoming projects. These include the YOUNG THEATRE MAKERS (weekly workshops for young people aged 7-13 on Sundays during term time), our SUMMER SCHOOL programmes (week long intensive courses for children and young adults aged 5 – 19 in August), and ACTING LAB (weekly acting classes for adults on Wednesdays).

    Workshop Assistants will be enthusiastic about theatre / the arts and will have demonstrable experience of working with children, young adults and/or older adults (this does not have to have been paid work, voluntary is also relevant). Workshop Assistants will have a keen interest in developing their skills as workshop leaders, and exploring the power of arts and theatre as a tool for increasing wellbeing. Tobacco Factory Theatres sees this as a powerful professional development opportunity for people who may not have specific experience working on projects of this kind. There will be further training and development opportunities for our team of Workshop Assistants over the course of the year.
