Elevate is a skills-building programme for socially engaged theatre-makers and artists who are interested in working with a specific community of people. It is designed as a practical, explorative course that we hope builds a lasting creative community. We have a cohort of practitioners signed up for the term, but we also open up some sessions (six in total) for all to pay to book on to.

We'll talk you through creating a simple business plan and budget

Whilst this day will be focussed on undertaking this work as a theatre practitioner, we believe other artists will benefit from this too.
