I just came across this on the Northern Ballet website.  I don't know if it will be of interest to anyone:

 

Work Experience at Northern Ballet

Work experience could inspire you to pursue a career in the arts.   At Northern Ballet we aspire to offer this opportunity to more young people across Leeds and Yorkshire.

Work experience is for young people of school age (usually in Years 9, 10 and 11) and can take place at any time in the academic year.

It provides you with an opportunity to spend a week at Northern Ballet gaining a broad experience of working in an arts organisation.

The focus of the experience is on the non-performance areas of the company and during the week you will spend time in different departments including; Technical, Communications, Development, Wardrobe, Learning and the Academy.

We are looking for young people who are enthusiastic about the arts and want to learn more about working behind the scenes at a cultural organisation.

To apply please fill in the application form here and send it to diane.tabern@northernballet.com or to know more about work experience please call Diane on 0113 220 8000

We also offer apprenticeships and internships. For further information about our current vacancies please look at our jobs page.

I wish something like this was available when I was younger, this would have been an amazing opportunity.

Thanks for this Janet.  It's something that my daughter would really be interested in and near enough for her to attend.  She would love it!  Off to investigate!

Argh wish I could do this but I'm sure I'm too far away and have nowhere to stay
