We are looking for an Assistant Director for our 2025/26 Winter Production!
What do we need from you?
You will work alongside director Ellie Lee Henry with the cast and crew to bring this production to life. We are looking for someone who is passionate, organised and eager to learn. This is a challenging role that requires multitasking and coordinating many aspects of the show and rehearsal process, so we need someone up to the challenge! Past experience is desirable but by no means necessary.
This play also contains narratives surrounding Autism, and we hope to engage as many neurodiverse creatives as possible to have their experiences reflected in the production and rehearsal process. This will mean adapting the room to the needs and desires of participating cast and crew, as well as audience members during the production. The AD will help to keep these goals maintained, as well as providing feedback and assistance to the process, so any relevant experience would be valuable.
We are also looking for someone who is keen to direct their own No Drama production in the future and put this experience to good use!
Finally you need to be available for show week (26th – 31st of January 2026) and for regular rehearsals between now and then.
What’s in it for you?
You will have the opportunity to be a central part of bringing to life a No Drama production. You will work alongside an experienced director, learning the ropes of directing a main production, working with a diverse range of crew and cast, all while getting a full perspective of the inner workings of a main production.
Once you have been an Assistant Director for one of our productions, you also become eligible to be one of our future directors!
