Our productions and projects can’t exist without the collaboration of talented freelancers; writers, directors, performers, creatives, stage management and technical/production teams.

We are continually on the look-out for these collaborators, and offer a range of activities and opportunities to provide routes into working at National Theatre of Scotland.

These opportunities change as we respond to identified gaps in skills and experience in order to build a fit for purpose creative workforce to achieve our ambitions.  

For more specific information about how you can get involved, click on one of the links below:

• Writers and Directors
• Community Focussed Artists
• Performers
• Creatives (i.e. set/lighting/sound/AV designers, movement directors/choreographers, intimacy directors etc)
• Technicians and Stage Managers 

We support artists and companies to independently develop their practice and productions, through access to our free, year-round resources, such as:

• work/rehearsal space,  
• staff expertise and experience  
• letters of support for funding applications
• use of equipment, props and costumes 

If you would like to request in-kind support for personal or project development, you can do that by submitting a request via our enquiry hub.

To receive our new quarterly newsletter and make sure you’re the first to hear about upcoming opportunities sign up to our artist mailing list 

Space and Equipment Loans are subject to availability and timelines, and will be prioritised for artists/companies we have not lent support to before.
