At Landmark Theatres, we’re passionate about inspiring the next generation of theatre-makers, creatives, and arts professionals. Our work experience placements offer young people a valuable opportunity to go behind the scenes and discover the many exciting careers that help bring our venues and productions to life.
Whether you’re interested in technical theatre, stage management, marketing, front of house, producing, or creative learning, our placements are designed to provide a broad introduction to the workings of a busy, professional theatre. You’ll shadow teams, gain hands-on experience, and learn from staff across different departments – all while building confidence and practical skills in a supportive and welcoming environment.
Work experience is an important part of our commitment to nurturing local talent and opening our doors to as many people as possible. We particularly welcome applications from young people who may not have had the chance to engage with theatre before, and we aim to make our placements as inclusive and accessible as possible.
