Every Christmas, Nottingham Playhouse produces a family show aimed at children aged 3-8 in the Neville Studio. The production then tours to primary schools, libraries and other community settings in the region.

We are very proud that this production provides a vital experience for younger children, many visiting a theatre for the first time. It is a core part of our Christmas programme and has been building a reputation year on year.

We welcome applications from all of the above. You can apply individually or as part of a duo. Please make this clear in your application.

The Director will also be recruited via an open callout.
