Space to Create

We’d love to hear from you if you’re interested in moving, performing, writing or have another creative-skill.

This is an exciting opportunity to work collaboratively with artists and facilitators in response to a National Theatre show, The Hot Wing King. This year, the week will be led by theatre-makers Benjamin Salmon and Olivia Douglass.

You’ll spend the week exploring and creating – the week is all about getting stuck into theatre-making and the process of this, with the aim of informally sharing some performance at the end of the week.

No prior theatre experience is necessary, just a sense of curiosity and creativity!

This year, we’re particularly keen to hear from people who are interested in queer theatre-making.

Tuesday 13 August, 5 – 10.30pm (Meet & Greet and watch The Hot Wing King performance)
Monday 19 August, 10:30am – 5:30pm
Tuesday 20 August, 10:30am – 5:30pm
Wednesday 21 August, 10:30am – 5:30pm
Thursday 22 August, 10:30am – 5:30pm
Friday 23 August, 10:30am – 5:30pm

All sessions will take place at the National Theatre on London’s South Bank.

Applications for this course are now closed. 

We are furthering our commitment to diversity and access by concentrating recruitment in three areas that we recognise have been most affected by the events of the last few years:

• young people from the global majority;
• young people from working-class backgrounds;
• and d/Deaf, neurodivergent and disabled young people.

This opportunity takes place at the National Theatre on the South Bank in London, and therefore we aim to offer and prioritise places to those based in London, or who can travel to London easily and safely within the workshop day. This project is free to take part in and access support and travel bursaries are available to those in the Greater London area.
