In most cases, we run 1-week of work experience placements which give students a flavour of what working in a theatre has to offer, that fits with a school’s work experience programme. This can include a variety of departments, such as Front of House, Production Design, Youth Theatre, and Marketing. We look to make your experience of working in theatre as diverse and realistic as possible, which hopefully helps you to make informed choices about future study and career opportunities.
These work experience programmes have very limited places, so we encourage you to apply as soon as possible! – Please fill in the application form below and return to our Arts Administrator – Simrun Sandhu via email at jobs@derbytheatre.co.uk.
Occasionally, we are able to offer more bespoke placements in particular projects and departments, however this is strictly subject to availability. If you are interested in discussing this opportunity or have any further questions, please get in touch with our Young Artists & Participation Producer – Sam George via email at s.george@derby.ac.uk.
