Nottingham-based touring company New Perspectives is offering to support a group of up to six new creative practitioners from the East Midlands.
Artists in the early stages of their career will have a chance to gain an insight into the workings of the company, feed in their own ideas, benefit from a range of company contacts and receive support with their own work. They will act as ambassadors for New Perspectives, helping to spread the word about productions and programmes and helping to shape the future.
New Perspectives which has more than 40 years’ experience of touring to venues of all sizes across the UK is encouraging applications from people under 40 from all backgrounds.
Artistic director Jack McNamara said, “I’m really excited to invite a group of early-career artists to join the New Perspectives family and help form the shape of our work.
“The East Midlands is awash with theatre talent and we want to learn from them as well as help them find ways of developing their own practice. We hope this will also be a chance for artists to think about their own leadership as they play a crucial part in the future of ours.”
Applications can be downloaded from the New Perspectives web site and should be returned by Monday 3 December.
