Providing opportunities for young people who may not otherwise have access to the industry, places on the programmes will be prioritised for young people from Black, Asian and ethnically diverse backgrounds, from working class backgrounds, and/or with disabilities. 

How to be a Producer for 16-21-year-olds is led by Tobi Kyeremateng, producer and founder of the Black Ticket Project, alongside producers from the National Theatre (NT), Southbank Centre, Young Vic, and more. 

Through the online course, young people will explore the role of a producer and what it takes to produce cultural events, including in digital form, through interactive tutorials and problem-solving activities. In partnership with the Black Ticket Project, 50% of places will be available for young Black people. The course will take place across evenings in February.
