Job Summary

Job Description

No Door Theatre are offering the opportunity for a theatre-maker, who has not experienced working in an R&D process before, to participate and learn from what one is like. This is the kind of opportunity we believe we would have benefited from ahead of setting off on this project – ‘Sometimes if you want something to exist, you have to make it yourself’ – thank you Josie Long for this excellent quote.

Pay: £150 per day x 5 days. £750 total. (Expenses to be discussed if shortlisted.)

  • A theatre maker. You can be a writer, director, actor, producer etc as long as you have a track record of making work for the stage (does not have to be professional).
  • An enthusiastic, curious person who is ready to engage and learn with everyone in the room.
  • Someone who is interested in making work based on personal experience.
  • Ideally, someone who has made work that deals with similar topics e.g. grief, mental health, loss.
  • Someone who has NOT taken part in a week-long R&D before.
  • You must be 18+, there is no upper age limit.
  • You must be available for 13-17 May 2024, 9.00-18.00 (hours may vary)
