Resources

Every one of us is on a journey. Wherever you are on yours, we’ll do our best to help.

Whether you’re a performer, producer, director, maker or other type of creative, we can offer advice, connections, learning and resources. Supporting our performing arts community is at the heart of everything we do. We bring people together, offer advice, and provide access to learning and resources. We’re here to help creatives at all levels on their journey towards creating outstanding, inspiring work.

Here you’ll find articles, how-to guides, case studies and resources to help you navigate the unique challenges of making theatre, dance, outdoor or site-specific performances.

We will be updating our resources regularly and if you feel there’s something missing, please get in touch.
