Applications for our 2025 course are now closed.
Our Young Technicians Course is returning in January 2025.
This FREE introductory training programme offers 18–25-year-olds the opportunity to develop practical skills in lighting, sound and stagecraft with industry professionals.
Participants on this programme will be paid a training bursary when working on specific shows.
We prioritise applications from young people in Newham and the surrounding East London boroughs*, and those that are currently underrepresented in the industry.
This course aims to address the imbalance and under-representation of backstage professionals from the Global Majority; lower socio-economic backgrounds; those who are care experienced; those who identify as female, non-binary, transgender; those who are deaf or disabled; and those from areas of low arts engagement.
