Diversity of experience, thought and voice adds immeasurable strength to our Board, so we are actively looking for applicants from a wide range of backgrounds.

No Board Experience? No Problem!


We warmly welcome applications from those who are new to Trustee/ Board work as well as individuals who have a proven track record in governance roles.

  • Scaling up an organisation

  • Passion for the performing arts and for diversity.

We are also keen to hear from people from a culturally diverse background (including Black, Asian, Dual Heritage and Other Ethnic Groups); D/deaf & Disabled people; people who are from a working class background; and/or who are fathers or male carers.
