We are committed to offering creative opportunities for young people in and around Cambridgeshire.
CREATIVE CAREERS YOUTH FORUM
This project brings together young people aged 18–25 with a passion for theatre and the creative industries. Participants are working collaboratively to design and deliver projects aimed at helping other young people explore creative career pathways and develop key employability skills.
In February 2026, our Creative Careers Youth Forum presented their first project, a screening of their short film, Beginners Please: An Investigation Into Creative Careers. The film presented a funny, honest behind-the-scenes look at how to get your foot in the door in the creative sector. The screening was followed by a Q+A attended by over 100 young people and their families.
Applications are now closed.

WORK EXPERIENCE
We love welcoming students aged 14–18 for a behind-the-scenes look at working in theatre. Our one-week work experience placements offer a fun and inspiring introduction to the many roles that are needed to make a show happen.
During the week, students get to spend time with different departments – from Technical and Marketing to Fundraising and Box Office. Every placement includes a backstage tour, and, when we can, a chance to see a show too!
Our next placements are set to take place in July 2026 on the following dates:
- 6th – 10th July 2026
- 13th – 17th July 2026
Applications are now closed.
