Elemental - Artist Development Programme

We are thrilled to be launching our new talent development programme, Elemental, which will provide four early career artists with a connection to the Watermill Theatre and to develop expertise in their chosen discipline, build industry knowledge and fuel personal development and practise. 

We will be working with artists below from the following disciplines: 

• Designers
• Directors 
• Movement Directors 
• Lighting Directors 
• Sound Directors 
• Musical Directors.  

The artists should be passionate about making great theatre, with the ability to communicate that passion with others. We are looking for people who are responsive to our communities, flexible in their approach, and willing to challenge and drive change through their artistic vision. We are keen to hear from artists who share our values and want to engage in a collaborative learning environment.

Artists will have begun to make their own work or have gained experience in the industry as an assistant. They will be at a stage where sharing practice with peers, as well as receiving mentorship, would be of great benefit.

Elemental Artists will be paid a fee. Funding may be available to support travel and access costs, to help remove barriers for artists.  

The closing date for applications is Monday 8 July 2024
