We are looking for an Assistant Director for Bristol Old Vic's forthcoming Christmas production of Cinderella: A Fairytale by Sally Cookson, Adam Peck and the Original Company, directed by Lisa Gregan.
The applicant must be from or live in Bristol/the South-West and have a home base within 25 miles of BS1 4ED.
The role will enable the successful applicant to experience the complete arc of a professional rehearsal process, from the first read-through to the close of the run.
This is a great opportunity for an emerging artist from the South-West to develop their skills and take the next step in their career. The successful applicant will gain practical experience of making theatre on the mid-scale.
We are looking for someone who is curious about theatre-making, excited by the process of family work, and keen to learn and develop their directing practice.
We are particularly interested in hearing from applicants who are excited by interdisciplinary theatre-making and have an interest in movement, puppetry and working with music. Experience in these areas is welcome but not essential; curiosity, creativity, and a willingness to explore different theatrical forms are equally important.
