Job Summary

The voice, face and amp for our marginalised artist community

Job Description

I am a creative visionary with extensive experience in putting together unforgettable events, growing communities and brands. Think biohazard scripted fashion shows with upcycled plastic cyberpunk clothes in collaboration with Stanislavsky theatre.

My new project is post-modern theatre with a very conceptual approach and a social mission. We are designing a new form of theatre that is immersive, involves real-life experiences, latest contemporary art, and gameplay. This is not simply a play, but also a platform to expose the issues of forced immigration, initiate discourse about totalitarian practices, and create agency among the public.

I want to create the ultimate cure for xenophobia. Expose the wound and ponder how to heal. Help hundreds of creatives secure careers and their immigration status, and help society integrate them peacefully.

This is not a straightforward task, but a mind boggle for a creative innovator. Together we will live through the pain and give birth to a unique project, a new form that sits somewhere between theatre, installation, participatory performance, documentary, game design and social experiment. Please only apply if you're a freak avantguardist with a desire to make an impact, like myself.

At the moment we are at a very early stage of our development - raising the start capital, finalising the creative core team, and applying for grants. We are not currently able to offer immediate monetary compensation, however it is included in our budget and will be paid upon securing the start capital. I am looking for passionate individuals who strive to influence change towards a peaceful society. To find my people, build this meaningful project, and enjoy the success and difference we make. My core team to eventually become partners.

This is the opportunity to get involved in an exciting cultural startup with a philanthropic mission at an early stage, get an outstanding social initiative career chapter and a fulfilling life experience

Job Requirements

We are creating a play to highlight human trauma from forced immigration and living under totalitarian regimes. Articulates the causes and effects of forced immigration. We will create a play that develops empathy and agency, documents our times, and hopefully inspires a more humane peaceful society.

Pay: The current compensation written into our budget is £10000. A successful candidate will become an essential part of the core creative team and get involved in future projects. There are opportunities for bonuses and merchandise profit. If made partner, there are shares of the company. If successful we are planning to tour and create series of shows that you would also be involved in.

I do not see this as an hourly job, more of an integral part of a performing arts body. As per ArtsJobs policy: the rate will be approx 50-100GBP per hour, depending on how much time it takes.

Job Responsibilities

This is a big production that involves a wide selection of artists from all over the world with rich stories to tell. We have a strong message to convey and many instruments to do it.

You will be responsible for creating the advertising and marketing campaign to represent our company and community, spread information about forced immigration, and shape our image in the media. I would like it to be informative and impactful. Like an artsy horror film that teaches you a lesson.

This role is also our community lead - liaising with artists, figuring out ways to represent them. You will have a lot of talented creatives to work with, which you can involve in shooting promos: signing in the rain or hanging off a bridge - if they like your idea.

You will also take care of our socials and internal newsletters.

I am looking for an inspired creative communicator with a background in forced immigration to present us to the world.

Hours: Very flexible, fluctuating around 20hrs/week
