With limited face-to-face activities possible at the moment, many theatres are turning to online learning to allow students to explore their love for the stage. The National Theatre (NT) is no exception, adapting two of its most inspirational programmes into digital formats.

Both the How to be a Producer and the Young Technicians programmes will run in early 2021, allowing young people who may otherwise not have had access to the industry to explore roles in the theatre alongside professional mentors. In the former, students will focus on the practicalities of producing a show, while the basics of sound, lighting and video will be covered in the latter.
