Youth Theatre Creative Mentor

Role Overview & Responsibilities

Duckegg Theatre Company are the North’s community youth theatre family, with branches in accessible places across the better half of the country!
Due to expansion and a base of awesome actors, we are looking to expand our team of freelance creative mentors as we enter a new academic year in September 23. We are looking for both regular and cover mentors to work with our groups across West and North Yorkshire covering ages 3-18 years. Please see our Yorkshire class bases below:

Selby

Wetherby

Sherburn in Elmet

A specialism in acting is preferred. With small class sizes, we are a family of freelancers working ALONGSIDE young people to develop their skills and make amazing new theatre work, giving full ownership of work to its creators. You'll be supported by a principal who looks after the day to day running of the groups and a central base (Duckegg HQ) who look after centralised Duckegg projects across the North of England.

Positivity is a must, as is reliability - now more than ever, our kids need creative mentors who they build relationships with and rely on.

If this sounds like you please submit a CV and freelance rate expectations and we'll meet for a cuppa. Don't worry about a covering letter, we don't believe in them!
