Theatre Making: The Designer-Director Collaboration Workshop 2026

Theatre Making: the Designer-Director Collaboration is a one-day workshop aimed at early career theatre designers and directors. This workshop uses practical exercises to interrogate the process of making work collaboratively.

As an early career director, you may have graduated from a related directing course and made work in:

  • Fringe venues
  • Drama schools
  • With youth companies around the country

Please note we are only looking for directors as the designer places are now full.

This workshop will take place on Monday 15 June, 10am – 6pm.

Course Overview

This workshop has been developed by long-time collaborators: designer Georgia Lowe and director Anthony Lau. We hope this workshop will be a space for designers and directors to meet and begin new partnerships.

Participants will be asked to read a one act play in advance of the workshop.

There will be optional networking drinks after the workshop from 6pm. There is also an optional breakfast from 9.20am.

This project is free to take part in. We can offer support access support and financial aid for travel bursaries are available to those in the Greater London area.
