Work Experience

Applications will open in January 2025 for students wanting to take part in the 2025 Work Experience programme at The Rep, which will run from 16th to 20th June 2025.

Our week long work experience is aimed at supporting Year 9, 10 and 11’s who are considering a career in the Arts and want to have a better understanding of what working in a theatre might be like.

The Work Experience week will include:
  • Opportunities to meet theatre professionals, practitioners and creatives within the industry
  • Gain insight into how a successful producing theatre works behind the scenes
  • First-hand experience in the broad range of careers theatre has to offer
  • A performance opportunity in The Door, which will include onstage and back stage roles!
