Callout for Freelance Shine Programme Leaders

Application Closing Date: 23 Sep 2022

Are you a talented drama workshop leader with a keen interest in community participation work and the ability to enhance the creative development of children and young people? If so, we would love to hear from you.

Shine is Nottingham Playhouse’s free drama provision for young people throughout Nottingham city and county. We currently run 13 Shine groups in schools, community settings and specialist sites, engaging with over 100 young people each week.

Every Shine child (aged 7–16), takes part in 30 sessions each year, visits at least 2 shows at Nottingham Playhouse and, if they wish, takes part in the annual Shine Sharing on our main stage.

Shine inspires and develops a sense of opportunity for our young people.  Sessions are led by dynamic, creative and empathetic practitioners who care about delivering high quality drama workshops within our Nottingham community.

As the Participation Department expands and Shine grows, we are now looking for additional freelance leaders to join the Shine team, helping us to strengthen access to the arts for the young people of Nottingham.

Nottingham Playhouse is committed to a policy of diversity and inclusion, creating a workforce representative of the diverse communities we work with. We actively encourage applications from Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic and Disabled people. Nottingham Playhouse is part of the Parents in Performing Arts (PIPA) campaign and welcomes applications from people who have caring responsibilities.

We would like to help you to fully participate in the application process. If you require support or an alternative way to make your submission, please contact us.

The closing date for applications is Friday 23 September 2022 at 12noon.
