We are looking for Young Reporters to go backstage on A Tale of Two Cities! Are you an avid writer, photographer or blogger or just eager to learn more about a creative industry? If you’re aged 17 – 30, you could be our next Young Reporter.

Our Young Reporter scheme is now in its third year and we’ve already enjoyed working with over fifteen young people on shows including Regeneration, A View from the Bridge, Brave New World and Of Mice and Men.

We’re now on the hunt for our next Young Reporters, to go behind-the-scenes on Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities which is touring the UK from 20 September – 26 November 2016. Have you ever wanted to know more about how a play is staged? Do you want the opportunity to interview actors about their work? Are you looking to improve your writing skills?

If so, then the Young Reporters scheme might be for you! You’ll get to experience creating work for our audiences, which could include writing interviews, blogs, features and taking photographs and video.
