AMPLIFY: SEASONS – Programming Sessions Select this icon to close the instance modal

What is Amplify?

The Amplify programme is here to support local professional theatre artists. We know that the Midlands – both East and West, is full of talented theatre-makers and we want Nottingham Playhouse to be a hub for artists, whether fresh out of education, early career, or making professional work for several years. We are committed to developing a network where ideas can be shared, challenged and grown. Throughout the year, we create opportunities and host events to help professional artists develop skills, showcase work and connect with other artists. These include AMPLIFY: SEASONS, networking events, masterclasses, co-working opportunities and one to one mentoring and guidance sessions.

About Amplify Membership

Artists who join Amplify become part of a network of artists connected to Nottingham Playhouse who live in or come from the Midlands (East or West). This comes with access to an artists forum, exclusive events and workshops, ticket offers, one to one advice and guidance and much more.

AMPLIFY: SEASONS

AMPLIFY: SEASONS provides showcase opportunities for Midlands artists throughout the year, giving artists a chance to connect with and receive feedback from audiences and industry on their work at various stages of development.

SEASONS nights will take place four times a year, and each night will include two ticketed events – one double or triple bill of work in progress / scratch performances, and one ‘headline’ show – either a complete work, or a work in later stage of development.

We are looking for members of Nottingham Playhouse’ Creative Community* to assist with the programming decisions for SEASONS.

This means you will:

• Be part of a team of people looking at applications from artists
• Work alongside Artist Development Producer Beccy D’Souza to make decisions about what the SEASONS programme will look like
• Learn about (and feed into) what goes into making programming decisions
• Be credited in SEASONS marketing / literature

You don’t need prior experience of programming.  You do need to have been to Nottingham Playhouse to see a show before.

Our SEASONS programming sessions will take place on Thursday 5 March, 4pm-6pm and Friday 6 March 11.30am – 1.30pm 2026. You do not have to attend both sessions.

Please book by clicking book now above and putting in the promocode you have been given or call our Box Office on 0115 941 9419.

If you have applied to SEASONS or are involved in any of the shows which are awaiting a programming decision, please contact us prior to booking into a session to discuss.  Any further questions please email beccy.dsouza.01@nottinghamplayhouse.co.uk

*People who take part in any of our Participatory programme and / or people who are part of the Amplify network – PLEASE NOTE: at this time our programming sessions are for people who are 18 or older.
