Applications are now open for the YT Directors’ Development Programme, a brand new four-month long career-progression programme for experienced directors of youth theatre. Through the programme participants will be encouraged to take risks in their practice and further their aspirations as theatre-makers.
From August to November 2019, a cohort of up to eight youth theatre directors will come together to:
- view performances
- take part in workshops and discussions
- receive coaching
- develop new projects with young performers
- present brand new works-in-progress
The programme is specifically designed for practitioners who already have a range of youth theatre directing experience, including individuals who may have taken a step back from directing themselves in order to run companies or allow junior colleagues opportunities.
We are pleased to offer this programme with the support of our partners; Edinburgh International Festival, Traverse Theatre and Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society. Participation is free and application is open to all directors who can demonstrate a commitment to youth theatre in Scotland.
For full information on the YT Directors’ Development Programme, please download the Application Form below and email it to catherine@ytas.org.uk no later than 12 noon, Monday 10 June 2019.
