We’re offering three types of sessions: Starting Out, Stepping Up and Events For All. Sessions are marked by their relevant colour.
- Starting Out is for individuals who are exploring theatre as a potential career and want to learn more.
- Stepping Up is for those committed to a career in theatre, who are undergoing training or have completed work experience or an internship and are ready to take the next step.
- Events For All are open to everyone, no matter their career stage or experience level.

Writing: The Industry
Doing the writing and being a writer are two very different things. This session covers how to get the best from your writing, whilst trying to make a place for yourself within a challenging industry. We will cover: having an agent, having a side job, the magical quest (come to the session to discover what this is), rejections, responding to notes, how to identify a good idea and many more topics. Please come prepared with your biggest question about how the theatre industry works!
This session will be hosted by Sophie Swithinbank, multi-award-winning playwright and tutor in Playwriting at the University of West London and Theatre503. This session will be hosted in association with Nick Hern Books.
