Junior Apprentice Week
For GCSE & A-Level Students Under 18
Our unique and innovative Junior Apprenticeship Week offers GCSE & A-Level students under 18 a chance to creatively explore a career in theatre-making and producing.
First, students will learn about the business of theatre-making in a series of workshops and talks from industry professionals.
Then, throughout the week, they will work in small companies to develop an idea for a show with the intention of presenting their pitch.
Through workshops and challenges, students will be awarded ‘Funding’ and an opportunity at each stage to decide what they want to spend their money on. Whether it's a big-name star, an incredible set, or an advertising campaign. Each decision could determine the success or failure of their pitch as they race towards opening night.
