Made in Bristol is a free training programme for 18-25 year old theatre makers based in Bristol and the surrounding areas.
For MIB 260, we are looking for all theatre makers: actors, performers, designers, facilitators, stage managers, technicians, lighting designers, choreographers, musicians and composers!
The cohort will become resident at Bristol Old Vic, for two days a week, from January to August and full time in September & October 2026.
To celebrate the 260th anniversary of our Theatre, MIB 260 will deliver a free Theatre in Education tour to Bristol Secondary Schools. These pieces will be performed by members of MIB 260, and directed by Artistic Director, Nancy Medina and Lisa Gregan, Literary and Directors’ Associate.
MIB 260 will be supported and mentored in a range of disciplines including performance, design (set, costume, sound, lighting), technical skills, stage management and facilitation.
