Description

Departure Point is Back! After a successful London launch, Theatre Delicatessen’s ground breaking development programme is coming to Yorkshire.

Aimed at theatre companies and collectives in the early stages of their careers, Departure Point offers an intensive course in all aspects of running a theatre company. The programme offers a wide variety of workshops, dedicated rehearsal space and professional artistic mentoring, all to equip companies with the professional tools to become self-sufficient.

4 companies will have 10 weeks of access to rehearsal space, 30 workshops and mentoring sessions, desk space and a showcasing opportunity. Workshops will range from group sessions to bespoke individual mentoring - such workshops will include: Marketing, Producing, Budgeting, Funding, Technical Theatre, Stage Management, Website Development, Branding, Social Media, Press Releases and many more.

This fantastic opportunity will run from Theatre Delicatessen’s South Yorkshire venue in Sheffield between 4th July and 26th September and will culminate in a showing to select audience.

Theatre delicatessen supports experiential artists meaning we look to support artists that do not use traditional performance methods. Although the course is open to all performance styles, we will look to support artists working in non conventional spaces.

We welcome applications from across Yorkshire and beyond - remember Departure Point itself is free, so you will just need to pay for your travel to Sheffield (but obviously if you are coming from a long way away, check that these costs are reasonable to you).

Workshops will be held Tuesday evenings and all day fridays, please make sure you (or at least one of your company) are able to attend these before applying.

The course is to develop theatre companies, please be aware that although we will use the artistic as a tool to learn the aim of this opportunity is not to be used to develop a new project.
